Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate to meet people. Sometimes when travelling the only locals you speak too are staff, and I think both the hosting and surfing sides of couchsurfing are a good way to rectify this.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted in the past when I've had the opportunity, and enjoyed my time with all of my surfers. I've also surfed before in San Francisco. I'm starting to get the travelling bug again, and am currently planning a trip from North Dakota to South Carolina, by way of Texas.

Interests

I am very much into writing, both screenwriting and journalism. Starting to get back into traveling. Also into football (Chelsea fan), history, films, and politics.

Music, Movies, and Books

Film directors I admire include Hitchcock, Kubrick, Tarantino and Nolan. In terms of books, finished Moby Dick and have moved onto On The Road. Music taste is deeply eclectic and nostalgic, favourites include Queen, Madness and The Police.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing Wayna Picchu.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A few beers, and of course my time. Also if you need a ringer for a pub quiz I'm pretty good with trivia questions!
