ABOUT ME

Reliable, always willing to help, always willing to join in on a new adventure!

PHILOSOPHY

One life, live it!
I think you should Make the most out of life so I try to pack in as much as possible and constantly try new things.
I think one of the best quotes is "it's not the things I've done which I regret, it's the things I haven't done"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It's early September now and I've been hosting for just over a month. And what a great month! It seems as though I've met a lot of new people in that time, all friendly, open people full of spirit. It seems that the CS community are a great bunch of people and I'm really glad I joined!
When the time comes I'm sure to enjoy the surfing bit too!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've just returned from a round the world trip on which I met many people who had a lot of good things to say about CS so here I am giving it a go!

Interests

I enjoy Mountain biking and road riding and have been lucky enough to ride in a number of countries around the world. I'm also into my cars, Motorsport and car culture. Road trips are a big favourite!
I'm an architect who enjoys hands-on experience, be it small scale DIY to larger refurb/building projects.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like pop/rock/dance music, especially live gigs.
I'm not a big book reader but I generally read informative books rather than fiction.
I do like film, but don't really see as much as I'd like. I'm not into scifi or horror, but pretty much anything else goes as long as it's good quality. I'm more into the modern current stuff - it's the up to the date fashion which can be achieved with graphical presentation against my much more long term architectural background which intrigues me - street art is a great example, overpainted pretty quickly.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Summiting Mount Kilamanjaro has got to be one of the best moments - mentally more than physically hard, getting to the top just as the sun rose was awesome!
Visiting Uluru was also spectacular - I had low expectation so finding it so awe inspiring was incredible.
And getting to Machu Picchu was amazing - me and a guy on our tour just stopped and stared for some time!
