About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keep going as I'm going.

Seguir paseando por esta tierra tan linda conociendo a gente y ambitos diferentes.

ABOUT ME

Very laid back and easy to get along with. I will watch any football that is on the TV, usually to the detriment of any serious real life tasks that I should be doing. I love languages and learning about new cultures.

I'm pretty quintessentially British and like a mean cup of tea.

Muy tranquilo y amigable. Tengo la disposición de aplazar las tareas importantes en mi vida cuando hay partidos de fútbol que hacen falta ver, pero bueno, todos tenemos nuestros fallos. Me encantan los idiomas y aprender de culturas distintas a la mia. Soy un tópico del caballero inglés... pero a veces un poco más decuidado de apariencia.
PHILOSOPHY

You've never seen it all, you never know it all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to be able to make peoples lives a little easier by helping them out when they're travelling. There's nothing nicer than a friendly face and a warm place to stay when you're visiting a new city.

Through my experience of living in different cities and countries hosting and surfing have provided some of my best memories. The energy that travellers bring and their different mindsets help me question myself and to continue to grow as a person as well as letting me meet some amazing people and hearing some crazy stories.

A traves de CS he conocido unas personas increíbles y este modo de vida no lo voy a dejar! Soy una persona muy sociable y florezco en la compania de gente interesante que me dan buenas ondas y más energia. Quiero que me cuenten historias locas de sus vidas y que me pregunten y me hagan pensar.

Y en cambio lo que yo quiero proporcionar es tratar de hacer los viajes más sencillos para la gente. No hay nada mejor cuando estés de paseo ser bienvenido por una sonrisa y una casa cómoda en donde quedarte.

Interests

All sport, languages, indie/folk music but I'll listen to almost anything (ish). I love socialising and have a great group of friends here in Santa Marta.

I'm trying to learn French, chess, yoga and the guitar. All four of which are really hard but I will get there eventually!

El deporte, los idiomas y la música - más guitarra mejor!
Estoy intentando aprender la guitarra, ajedrez, yoga (o por lo menos ser más flexible) y francés / portugues.
