About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be and become.

ABOUT ME

Hi there, I would describe myself as an honest and adventurous sort of guy. I like to think and talk about big questions, and I think much of life is known through experiencing new things and learning from new people. I also believe that humour is much more important than we think it is.

PHILOSOPHY

God is love - it all flows from there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted a number of surfers and helped a few more find accommodation. I've also been fortunate enough to be hosted in the past by very kind and welcoming people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm into soul, blues, early hip hop, reggae, rock, most kinds really. Really into thrillers, comedies and documentaries. I'm a big fan of philosophy and information books, and I've just begun to appreciate fiction and poems; I'm one of these start-5-never-finish-any types when it comes to literature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Accidentally walked through a conflict zone and ended up posing with the army guys, M16s and all. There are many I suppose. The meaning and power of an event rarely hits you at the time.

Teach, Learn, Share

Stay honest, curious and level-headed.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Fun, thoughts and gratitude.
