About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live the dream -- Share the Love

ABOUT ME

I like to consider myself positive, laid back and up for anything... I really enjoy sitting down for a drink, a shisha and an interesting conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

To keep it real. I think everyone is inherently good and I try to treat people with the most respect I can, and to always remember that no matter what... life is sweet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf couches... I host surfers. In London we had an average of 6 people a night on our floor and I loved it. I have surfed a couch or two and I enjoy the occasional meeting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed with and met many many fantastic people throughout Europe, North Africa and India and absolutely loved every second of it... and saved a fortune on accommadation.

I hosted a bunch of different people in Christchurch, London and California.

Interests

Sports. Hanging out and getting to know people beyond the small talk. Cookies. Beer. High Fives. Hitch Hiking. History. Politics. Learning about stuff I never knew existed (like the Etruscans). Shisha. Living the Dream. Planning the next trip.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is so darn important, what do I like? Hip Hop, Rock, Acoustic, Indie pop/rock. Notably: Queens English, Jurassic 5, Neil Young, Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip.

Books: I recently got introduced to W. Somerset Maugham, I love it.

I love movies... all are a good way to escape sometimes.
