LGBT- friendly host. Professional guy. Want to experience new cultures and open myself up to new experiences through travel, hosting and meet ups. I'm planning several short breaks in cities and towns across the world, starting with Europe. Friendly and relaxed guy, happy to host and share my knowledge of Belfast and Ireland. Love food, music and meeting new people. Full disclosure, I have 5 pugs and 2 cats so guests should be pet friendly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet local people on my travels and help travellers by hosting and sharing my local knowledge of Belfast and Ireland. I love learning about people, their lives and their experiences, and opening myself up to new perspectives.

• food

Music, Movies, and Books

Musically my taste is quite eclectic although I do lean mostly towards a bit of Pop, Dance, RnB and Disco. Love my music Divas (not to be that cliché gay guy but Britney and Kylie are firmly at the top of my list). Not much of a reader but i do enjoy books and podcasts that encourage personal growth. Atomic Habits changed my life, and i regularly listen to a podcast called The Mindset Mentor. Race Chaser with Willam and Alaska is a go-to podcast for me also. Favourite TV shows: Grey's Anatomy, Criminal Minds, Schitts Creek, Rupaul's Drag Race, How to Get Away with Murder, Desperate Housewives, Scandal, The Good Wife/Fight, Suits, Sex and the City....the list goes on. More into TV shows than movies but some of my favourites would be classics like Sister Act, Pretty Woman, Romy and Michele's High School Reunion and Erin Brockovich.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Best thing I ever did was meeting Britney Spears lol. In the context of travel, I really enjoyed walking the Camino de Santiago. I met some amazing people and overall it was an amazing spiritual experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to play a fun game that another couchsurfer taught me - it's a great way to get to know somebody quickly. I'd like to learn how to cook meals from all across the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm pretty easy going. Happy for travellers to come and go. I have a spare bedroom and a comfy sofa. I live close to the city centre. If I'm not working I may be able to join you while you explore belfast. If I'm too busy to join (or you'd prefer to venture solo) I can give you a list of great recommendations for sight seeing, bars, restaurants, beauty spots etc.
