I’m currently travelling with my partner Lucy. I am a life-time skateboarder and love to explore new places via skating. Both Lucy and I have a love for the visual arts and are both painters and photographers, we are friendly, kind people who are really interested in expanding our horizons and making more friends :) we would love to meet you!

Music, Movies, and Books
We love 60s and 70s music, have grown up listening to the Beatles and David Bowie. We also love reading, my favourite book is Catcher in the Rye and Lucy’s is Just Kids by Patti Smith. Lucy also loves Jane Austin books and movies! I’m a Star Wars fanatic and love anything fantasy and Sci-fi as well as classic horror and can always talk about movies! Some of our favourite artists include Monet, David Hockey, Andy Warhol and Edward Hopper.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Recently we worked as actors in Boomtown, one of the largest festivals in England and it was one of the most enjoyable things I’ve done in so long. We had to create outfits and our own characters for the street performances we took part in, while including the festival goers and sending them on missions e.c.t. It was so much fun taking other people and myself out of our comfort zones to just have a good time and expensing our creativity. I particularly loved designing the outfits, we had the theme ‘botanical bounty hunters’!
Teach, Learn, Share
Lucy and I are very interested in sculpting and pottery and have experience in oil painting, watercolour and photography. I would love to learn some carpentry and wood working skills. We enjoy meditating and love to do spiritual exercises. We love cooking and would be happy to make meals with you, we’re always apt to learn! Vegan and vegetarian food is our specialty but we don’t have any food restrictions at the moment so anything goes!
What I Can Share with Hosts
We love to help around the house and would love to paint murals and help with making wonderful food. We would enjoy helping with any creative challenges or art projects and are always looking for something to get crafty with.
