CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy, experience, live

ABOUT ME

I love writing, travelling and meeting people from other cultures. Enjoying experiencing all kinds of new stuff - I'll basically try anything once, as long as it doesn't involve hurling myself out of an aeroplane or something daft like that. Particularly active and enjoy a wide range of sports.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting new people - not only when I'm travelling, but also where I'm living.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All my experiences with CS have been good ones, and I've made a great many interesting and friendly people.

Interests

Writing, reading, socialising, cinema, sports, camping, hiking, long walks, golf. Anything really.

I've also started to get really into photography and film-making, and am currently putting together a series of mini documentaries about Hong Kong.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favourite author of all time has to be J.R.R. Tolkien, and his trilogy of Lord of the Rings. Music - well, you can't beat Queen of the Beetles. Newer stuff - Coldplay, Radiohead, that kind of ilk. Movies - tend to favour political or alternative movies. Prefer European cinema over American movies, in general. Love Britfilms - always remind me of home! Plus watch a lot of Italian and French. Haven't got into the Hong Kong film scene yet - any recommendations?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A mini tornado in Peru, just inches from my feet. A volcanic eruption in Japan, a leetle too close for comfort. Cycled from Land's End to John O'Groats, which was cool.

Teach, Learn, Share

All polar bears are left-handed. It's funny sometimes the trivia you pick up on your travels.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A sense of fun and adventure.
