ABOUT ME

I am a self professed Gentlemen of Leisure, however I've been finding that work tends to get in the way of this noble pursuit. I often travel out of town with my job, so may not always be around, but if I am in town I look forward to being a helpful host...
When it comes to visiting others, I can remember quite clearly the night I had to sleep in the back of an abandoned Russian Lada on a Panamanian peninsula in the middle of nowehere - so I am very grateful for the hospitality and do what I can to stay out of the way and minimize my footprint (unless I am crashing with my sister, in which case I try to be as high maintenance as she is when she comes to stay with me...).

PHILOSOPHY

Live to create opportunity for others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My travels are fairly extensive so I am happy to provide tips or suggestions regarding any of the places I have been.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Guess it has been a while, since I updated this part of my profile, probably no longer a rookie... I have surfed and offered surfing - I look forward to the day when I can do more of it more often...
