About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Growing the Charity I work for

ABOUT ME

I love cycling, science and socialising.
Am a professional but love travelling and working overseas. Love the outdoors, into sport and enjoy meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

He who dies with the most toys wins.... (not really). I believe that experiences are everything in life. Good or bad doesn't matter. Main thing is that you learn from them. I also think that people are too afraid of things. Confronting fears is one of the best things in life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just joined CS. I want to stay with CS members but wouldn't feel comfortable to do so if I hadn't had someone staying with me first!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed on couches and floors (non affiliated!) all over the world. Great to meet people but also better if they have an inflatable mattress!
