About Me

Hey, I'm a 26 year old Scottish-American based in Edinburgh. Travel is my passion and I live to experience new things and develop relationships with people from all over the world. I work in sustainability and have studied and am fascinated by policy, politics, anthropology, economics, heritage and history.
I've lived in the United States, Scotland and Belgium and have travelled to more than sixty countries. I've been lucky enough to have some incredible experiences in hitchhiking, hiking, taking risks and living without regrets. I am so thankful to have made wonderful friendships around the world which I continue to maintain and develop.

I centre all my interactions with the virtues and goals of curiosity, kindness and open-mindedness.

I'm extroverted, outgoing and personable with a wild sense of humour. I'm curious and want to learn about you and your culture. I'll try anything once (or twice).
My instagram is @bookwoof.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet locals and have authentic, unique experiences. I want to get as much out of travel as I possibly can. I love making new connections, creating memories and sharing good times with others. I enjoy trying new things and sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm with others.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to read, I never go anywhere without a book. The sadder, more bleak the better.
Film is one of my greatest interests . I enjoy cinema and all types of film (again, sadder or more abstract the better). My letterboxd is https://letterboxd.com/jackanevin/.
As for music, it's probably the most difficult one for me to pin down in a few words.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've ran with the bulls in Pamplona (twice!), completed the Camino de Santiago with my father, climbed Machu Picchu, hitchhiked more than 15,000 miles, hiked in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, trekked in Nepal, deep sea fished in Alaska, scuba dived in the red sea, and open-air camped in the Moroccan desert!

Visited 50 countries by the time I was 24… 70 by 26!
Visited every country in Europe as of Nov 2024
