About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm going to travel as much as possible soon and what better way to meet nice, friendly, outgoing people then to meet them on couchsurfing, where others actively try to help and accommodate others.

ABOUT ME

I am an outgoing, adventurous, friendly, practical and helpful. I want to try all the experiences that I can. New countries and cultures will throw up different challenges and excitement. I want to socialise at every opportunity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None. That's why I want to start.

Interests

The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. I love trying new food, new cultures and experimenting with the unknown elements of another country. Live music and performances. One or two beers on a night out.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scuba diving off Koh Tao island in Thailand. Beautiful, crystal clear water, colourful fish swimming around me, waving to the people snorkeling seven meters above me.
Walking through the jungle and then river on an elephant's back. Them bathing the elephant.
