Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
A small group of thoughtful and committed people can change the world - that's all that ever has
ABOUT ME
Normal stuff really, worked for a while, now traveling for a short time before working again. Lived abroad for a couple of years and now heading back to London but really enjoyed meeting random people on the way so thought I'd give it a go a little more formally, on the advice of fellow traveler. So we'll see what happens!
PHILOSOPHY
Being human is all about compassion, nothing more. Live with compassion, respect and integrity and the rest will sort itself out.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Not been able to contribute just yet, as only just been introduced to the idea! Looking forward to it though - for me the whole concept is important, people giving and sharing and learning, whether it's couches or time or experiences!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm new so my only experience is the conversations of friends who've tried it and loved it - that's why I'm signing up now!
Interests
Will give anything a go, really, provided it doesn't involve excessive heights. But you can never really go wrong with reading a great book after a few drinks, or a great game of football.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music - lots, though I suspect I missed the reincarnation boat and should be riding the railroads somewhere in 50s America. Mumford and Sons at the moment. Plus a Prodigy revival. Books? Steinbeck. Although I can't recommend Pete McCarthy highly enough, either.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I wrote to Roald Dahl when I was eight. He said I had a great imagination.
Teach, Learn, Share
I agree.
