About Me

Hoping to have a good look around at some cool places, I like a drink and a good chat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Heard about it through a mate seemed like a good idea to meet some new folks and get the lay of the land through real people not just dodgy websites.

Interests

I got into martial arts at a really young age because unlike most young British boys I didn't like football (mostly because I was crap at it). The rest I got into from reading books and doing the small amount of travelling a man on a meagre budget could afford.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love a good book, big fan of the classics recently finished the trial by Kafka, but am partial to a bit of everything.
Favourite artists are Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, Nine Inch Nails, The Pixies and Velvet Underground, but am into a lot stuff and will give anything a go!
I'm a big film buff really into David Lynch at the moment and anything with Nicholas Cage.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camped out overlooking Teton mountains with a mate during a big road trip. Really good half way point for the trip had a little party and a big fire.

Teach, Learn, Share

Really interested in history so swapping some knowledge would be cool, like learning about art but know less about that. As far as what I can teach is some judo, bjj and boxing but that's quite niche.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Slap up English breakfast and a winning smile to boot.
