About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find out where my stuff keeps going...

ABOUT ME

Well about me, I'm just like anybody else really (except i like to think im a bit different,just to be diverse), i have my likes, and dislikes. Like to think i do my bit too.

A big like for me would be having fun and experiencing new things (like riding around Chiang Mai on a scooter), big dislike would be not having fun and just being bored, nobody likes that.

Probably my biggest dislike of all would be wet socks.

PHILOSOPHY

I've heard lots but my favourite is...

"Its now what's in front on you that stops you, its what's inside that holds you back" - I found this one very useful when it came to jumping out of planes and off bridges.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment by hosting people when i can, and spreading the word.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far i've hosted a few people, who have all been great and had a fantastic time. I've also surfed myself once, with the first people i hosted, so all the experiences are very good indeed.

Interests

I love to go Scuba Diving, its the best thing in the world. Other than that i do like to partake in playing a bit of guitar and bass now and again. Interested in a variety of sports too. And then all the usual mischief on top of all that too. Always good to shoot some pool now ad again and the general student activities of which drinking is probably quite high on the agenda.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like movies, no preferences really, if it makes me laugh its a bonus. I like music even more, will listen to almost anything, i would list some bands but they are constantly changing and there's so many but i must admit im quite big fan of Reel Big Fish. Quite partial to a book or two.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungy Jumped, its quite a rush. Then one amazing thing i've not seen or done is swam with a Whale Shark but hopefully my luck will change soon.
