Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people, listen to their stories, share good food, whiskey + making memories

Interests

I like old things, odd things, broken things, broken people, damaged things, new, shiny things, hope, despair...

I'm interested in observing people and getting an insight into cultures.

Cooking, coffee, philosophy, art and witty banter.

Music, Movies, and Books

The stuff you won't hear on the radio

The books you find in flea markets like a battered but beautiful copy of L'etranger.

The movies your grandparents loved

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I consider entering and exiting North Korea (alive!) a success.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach literature and grammar, so if you need help....

I can also teach you how to do the splits and play chess.

I will learn anything and everything...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make a great cup of tea.
