About Me

Grew up in the Caribbean and lived the rest of my life in England. As a teacher I'm passionate about sharing ideas and skills but I'm done with living 'the normal life' and keen to explore the world and find a way of living in a more natural and liberating way.

I'm currently travelling with my girlfriend Yria, who's Spanish but originally from Venezuela. We both love meeting new and interesting people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To travel, meet new people, share stories and ideas.

Interests

Martial Arts (particularly traditional Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi), Philosophy, Hiking, Camping, Bushcraft, Permaculture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing Mt Hua in Shaanxi Province, China. Over 2100m climb up winding stairs in the middle of the night and watching the sun rise over a sea of cloud with the mountains rising out of it like some fairytale coastline.
