About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Discover the world, speak foreign languages, learn about new cultures and share great experiences!

ABOUT ME
I cannot stay still for too long, I love to go out and discover new places, new people, there is so much variety in the world it seems a waste to stay put in one place for too long. I love sport and the outdoors and will never say no to an adventure which means I often have stories to tell. I run at an international level and my favourite place to be is in the mountains! I also play the violin and love improvising in a group.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've mainly surfed for the moment as I seem to have been a nomad for the last 6 years. I'm looking forward to having my own place some time though so that I can repay the kindness and generosity I've been shown by my hosts.
So far I've had great couchsurfing experiences in Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Canada, USA, Germany, France, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Norway, Cuba...

Music, Movies, and Books

Books which I can learn something from. So historical/political or in a foreign language

I like music where the person who has made it has talent. Not banal electronic beats...

As a violinist myself I do enjoy a bit of classical music from time to time though will happily listen to anything I can sing along to

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cramming as much into life as possible!

Teach, Learn, Share

People who have done things which I aspire to do, who can tell me about places they've been, people they've met, things they've done. People who come from different cultures and backgrounds who I can learn about and share and discuss our differences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A "can do" attitude to life, multiple languages, many travel experiences, a good time!
