About Me

.
Travel as much as possible within the constraints of work and finances.

ABOUT ME

Professional, highly trustworthy and honest guy. A man's man. Gay, but it doesn't rule my life. Easy to get on with, likes a chat and intelligent conversation. Able to adapt readily to any situation. Well travelled and likes meeting people of all ages and races. Have 2 kids and was married for 13 years.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's too short to be serious.
Enjoy the time you have as you have no idea of how long that's going to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love anything that's active. Love talking to new people and seeing as much of the world as possible in the time we have. Always ready to give a hand anywhere that's needed. Looking at volunteer work once I retire in later life to give back to society in the world's poorest countries.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Haven't "surfed" much as yet, but looking forward to the future experiences!!

Interests

I love sport and seeing what the world has to offer. Like getting off the beaten track and exploring the out of the way places when possible. Spend my time working hard as a teacher and making the most of holidays when they arise. Avid scuba diver ( divemaster ) and skier (group instructor ).

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - any and all
Movies - love sci fi and action.
Books - biographies and something that grabs you quickly, otherwise I'm off to sleep!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent 12 years travelling and working around the world. Added to my perspective on life and lets you appreciate what you have and who you have around you.

Seeing the grand canyon for the first time. Awe inspiring!! Tick that off the bucket list!!

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to live and learn from everyone. That's the spice of life!!
Mix well with all age groups and adapt easily to all types of situations, from high brow to basic poverty. Have lived in and experienced both.
