About Me

We are a couple (and now with a baby) who have been travelling the world full time since 2012.

We are kind natured, easy going and good humoured people. We love landscapes and wildlife, both sharing a passion for the ocean.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We want organic travel experiences with real people from the countries we are in. We can meet English people in England, we want to experience life as you live it :)

Interests

Our biggest interests are travel, meeting new people - both locals and fellow travellers, swapping stories, playing guitar, writing, photography/filming, cinema, music, marine conservation, diving/snorkelling, food, wildlife and nature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Going to the North Korean border dressed as mermaids. https://youtu.be/ht7HwECPlkU

- Hitchhiking the length of South Korea

- Making a video in Maldives for work

- Flipping a coin to decide wether to get on a bus in Thailand. The coin was heads to stay so I didn't get on it. That bus then went off a cliff. 10 days later I met Emma.

- Staying with a local family in Vietnam where they had not seen white people in their village before.

- Visiting the Great Barrier Reef

- Borneo's wildlife

- Hot air balloon crashing in the Mayor's garden in a small village in Laos

- Playing an impromptu gig in Brazil

- Swimming with Manta rays

- Being chased by a shark in Malaysia

- Watching Emma get car sick on every journey :)

- Meeting 100's of new friends

Teach, Learn, Share

Anything and everything, life and travel are learning experiences, we want to learn about you. Everything from the food of your culture, how you see the world and daily routine.

We are making videos of our travels and I can teach editing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Emma is an amazing cook and can teach you recipes we have learnt around the world.

I can teach basic Guitar and have a qualification to teach English. I also have qualifications to teach Football (soccer).
