CURRENT MISSION

Taking mother to Amsterdam.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy constructive criticism of my dancing - I'm always looking to improve and have, at last count, three part tricks. I enjoy conversation and looking at things .

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life so that one day someone will look back at it and say 'OMG DAD'.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My house has been home to many couch-surfers (through the profiles of my housemates, who are my listed friends) and I have participated by welcoming into our home with embraces and beer and good cheer. I myself have never couchsurfed but would very much like to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Erm..........

Interests

Oh but I like allsorts. Chiefly people (of all ages and occupations - receptionists, children, layabouts, dogs and cats, mormons, television presenters, runners) - the imaginative products of people (paintings, post it notes, television series, imagined friends, cars, lego, jazz, Billie Holiday) and books.

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh but all of them. Not ALL of them. I read a lot, my current favourites that I badger all and sundry about are War and Peace (but not it's actually really really really good) and David Foster Wallace (books) and, um, I read a bit of John Le Carre. I pretend not to like things that are too popular because I like to maintain a sense of superiority over the common man.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a girl dance on a hilltop in the sunrise as though no-one was watching.

Teach, Learn, Share

Um, I don't think myself fit to teach anybody anything. This is what makes me a great teacher.
