About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To avoid the rat race, whilst making a living, whilst having a super awesome time!

ABOUT ME

I am currently living in Toronto, Canada with my girlfriend.
I am studying for my MBA online via the University of Liverpool, this takes up all of my time and I am learning constantly, I feel now that I will continue to learn for the rest of my life. Im inquisitive and Im intrigued about anything that I dont already know about.
I love to travel, my travel plans are constantly evolving and "the list" is getting longer and longer!
I love dogs and I have an English Bull Terrier called Ruby, she is beautiful, please see attached pics.
I was raised in the english countryside and this will always be my home, but having recently fled the nest to chase dreams I can only go back every six months. I need to take everybody back there to show them how beautiful it really is!

PHILOSOPHY

Everything happens for a reason! Living by this nothing is ever a problem.
"A man that never made a mistake, never made anything!"
"Investment in knowledge, Pays the best interest"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couch surfed in south east asia and Australia, the people I have met have been awesome!!!
As soon as I get a place with room for a couch I will begin to host, this will hopefully be the start of next year.
It is truly a great concept to arrive in a new country and instantly have a friend with the same interests. I wish I could meet people in person to request a couch to surf and visa versa, the edge seems to be wearing off CS's.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

5 nights in Singapore, this was a great introduction to this concept. 4 nights in Borneo and a week in Melbourne, Australia. All the people I have couch surfed with, I am still in regular contact with. I even have been back to see one of them.
Hoping to start to host next year.

Interests

Travelling!!!! Music, cultures, landscapes, sunsets, sunrises, I love to drink, party and chat! I suppose my interest in Business and Investment Banking is becoming more and more significant as I try to build a new career. I have always travelled and will continue till the end.

Im a big fan of the author Andy Mcnab.
I read the 1000 page long 'Shantaram' whilst travelling in India and look forward to reading it again oneday.
I like comedy and action movies, anything with Adam Sandler in it. 'Band of Brothers' 'The Pacific' 'Boardwalk Empire' 'Board to Death'

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed over the Annapurna pass in Nepal over the period of 12 days and it was the most amazing experience of my life!

I also bought a motorbike in India and travelled around Kasmir for 6 weeks!

I used to race ATV's in the UK,

I ran a successful business at the age of 20,

I hope to accomplish many more experiences like this!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have extensively travelled in India and i love to tell people about the culture if they havent been. I am trying to lean a little Chinese mandarin on my travels? I am hoping that there is something I can bring you from Canada? Maple Syrup? A t-shirt with the CN tower on it?? Ha ha
I love my home town in the UK and I love to tell everybody about it, Rugby is where the sport was invented.
