CURRENT MISSION

To share good things and play football... and of course, save the world.

ABOUT ME

I love the company of friends, warm evenings, sunshine, playing with a football, wandering, exploring, doodling/drawing, busking (singing & guitar), the natural world, hiking, travelling, films, discussing all manner of things, philosphising, activities, water, swimming, visual communication, tennis, playing sensible soccer and mario kart, creative thinking...

easy going and relaxed nature | friendly | open minded | honest | active | open | curious | caring | considerate | interested | balanced >>

I think people should take care of eachother.

PHILOSOPHY

"Carpe Diem". embrace. love. share. enjoy.

I have many many thoughts, but I needn't list them and expand here and now. They're better discussed and challenged anyway.

For now though... I like this...

"My choice is what i choose to do
And if i'm causing no harm
It shouldn't bother you
Your choice is who you choose to be
And if your causin' no harm
Then you're alright with me"

Song: Burn One Down
Artist: Ben Harper
Album: Fight For Your Mind

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to meet good people, make new friends and share in their lifestyles and cultures. I want to learn, inspire and be inspired. Rather than just seeing a place and scratching it's surface, I'd prefer to get involved and get a taste of real life there.

I'd like to offer the same as a host.

I'd also love to play football wherever I go. Get involved in a game :)
