About Me

NOTE: summers are really busy for me and I'm often not around, so apologies in advance if I don't reply!

I live on a 36' sailboat in Fisherman's Wharf in Victoria. I have a blog going at www.gudgeonblog.ca - I try to keep it updated fairly regularly.

Originally from the UK, Victoria is the 3rd Canadian city I've lived in, and probably my favourite so far.

I love travelling and seeing other peoples lives, and people bring me great happiness (yeah, that's pretty corny... true though!). Huge fan of outdoorsy stuff, and would love to take people on one of the many glorious hikes around here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've met a lot of interesting people travelling, and it's always fun showing people around a place I love.
