About Me

I guess I am pretty quiet, I like music, books, people. I'm really into my rural crafts and travel a lot, always carry my ukulele, but won't force anyone to listen!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm lucky to travel for my work, lucky because I meet the real people in any country, not the touristy façade. Now I am with my new partner and starting to travel outside work I want us to share the same experience, also, don't have a lot of money, but don't see why that has to be too much of an obstacle

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

My music varies a lot, last couple of months I have been listening to a lot of Blues, but have palyed in a reggae band, and a 70's 80's cover band, sort of sums up my tastes, depends on the moment and sometimes I have no taste at all!
Movies, British Gangster and I think it was called 'First Knight' the squire who becomes a knight, also the Commitments, I like that style of humour that runs through all those films.
Books. I have kept my Terry Pratchett books, all my Rebus, (don't like Ian Rankins other books), also got most of Game of Thrones rebuilt, otherwise its my craft books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Changed people lives, really lucky to have been able to have a positive impact on a few people and helped them I hope.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am pretty open, if I have a skill it is yours, if you have a skill , I want to learn!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I don't know! Any of the above, like I said, I am pretty open to both learning and passing on knowledge wherever I can!
