CURRENT MISSION

Trying to spice my working week with insanely fun weekends.

ABOUT ME

Right. Well I keep saying I will just steal the bio of a friend but that's cheating, right?

I am a graduate - so far so CV - In politics. It has very little do do with the job I end up getting.

I love music. All music really. Especially live music, in great pubs with ales or even better in a muddy field at festivals.

I read. Not enough. But stuff that I find interesting which can be anything from trashy fantasy novels to obscure french Philosophers (yes, I read philosophy for fun, wanna make something of it!? ;-) ).

I watch films. Gattaca tends to be my favourite ever, but this fluctuates. I mostly like to watch things that make you think or laugh.

In addition to this I am a geek, though I try to hide it, playing various computer games (consoles are for loosers ;-) ), board games and wargameing.

Oh and I've barely entered the exciting world of Couch Surfing, but aim to dabble into it with every opportunity I have... Which I have so far failed to do... oops!

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be as relaxed and as patient as I can. Understanding that the range of experiences that are out there are greater than my narrow tenancies so I am happy to try everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I currently plan to do a bit of surfing, and participate in CS events as often as I can. Unfortunately my house share will make it difficult to host... But I'm going to work on the rest of my housemates.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One and only CS event so far was one of the best weekends ever! Thanks to the wonderful Sarah Ford, a weekend of exciting conversation and excessive fun within the town of Sounthampton.
