Hi Everyone, I am a 32 year old guy from North Yorkshire England. It really is a beautiful part of the world. However, travel is in my blood. I was born and raised for the first 3 years of my life in Germany, then four years in the UK and then 3 years in Hong Kong. I spent my main years in North Yorkshire and then when I reached 18 I spent 3.5 years in Australia. Lovely country but I think a little bit too far now as I prefer to be on the doorstep of my family. I have just returned from 16 months in Sevilla as an English teacher. I loved the culture of the south of Spain and maybe will return in the future for longer stays...god who knows I may even live there one day.
Fluent in English
Learning Spanish
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm looking for friends all over the world but especially in Iran. This year I'm making a focused effort to travel from Baku into Iran, I have always been fascinated with Iran and her history. I'm looking for friends all over Iran, it would be great if we could share a tea or coffee and you could show me your favorite part. I love listening to people's lives and their different stories and hope to help make the world a better place by seeing things through other people's eyes. I never want to stop learning new things and I think that new cultures can help us see things in a different perspective.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music is constantly in my little ears, I do have surprisingly small ears for a guy. I listen to nearly music.
