About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel beyond the guide books

ABOUT ME

Easy going and laid back (a little too much, I've been told). I left the UK in 2007 to 'see the world' I'm not overly interested in tourist attractions and find myself living, working and volunteering in places rather than just visiting them. 2016. setting up a base in the south of France, Help Exchange Host 51700.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to meet local CS hosts for a coffee or a drink if I'm in an area for any length of time. I am guilty of grabbing the odd night on a sofa or two when travelling long distances and just need somewhere to crash. In return I hope I have given something positive back to my hosts and I hope to always be available to other travellers while I'm 'on the road'. When I'm 'at home' I like to return the hospitality I have been offered so many times my self.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have met some truly great people, some of which have become good friends despite distances and we are still in touch.
