About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To end and begin each day feeling excited.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy thinking and talking about almost any subject. This isn't to say that I usually know what I'm talking about, or can easily decribe my thoughts, but this is certainly a constant pleasure in my life that is central to who I think I am. I hope to share this pleasure more with others, and this motivates my desire to move around and chase interest in life.

On paper, I'm a twenty-six year old English man, raised in Norwich and now about to leave again. I lived in Sheffield, England, for a few years whilst at university there. I also lived in Amsterdam for a year whilst studying for an MA at the university.

These days I spend most of my time talking with friends, enjoying drinking beer and wine (whilst talking with friends), riding my bike everywhere I want to go, eating more food than I need, reading fewer books and watching fewer films than I should, and generally daydreaming a lot whilst hoping to look sophisticated.

PHILOSOPHY

This question is all-too-constantly under consideration. I'm not sure why I live my life, but I'm pleased to have the chance, so I'm trying out different things to see what works best. Experience ususally trumps the thought-experiment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing is new to me. I hope and expect that my enthusiasm will grow as I begin to make contact with people. I'm not sure at the moment how I'll end up participating, but I do indeed aim to give as well as take, when I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don't remember exactly how many couches I've slept on, but some where certainly more accommodating than others! All the sofas I've graced have been those of my friends, or friends of friends, so I'm looking forward to trying some stangers' couches too!
