An active, adventurous guy looking to meet new people, visit amazing places and have a few laughs along the way. I have a passion for the sea and all water-sports after spending my life living and working on the coast. I am willing to try anything once, maybe twice to be sure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea that the people on site are doing it for something other than money. I think this allows for a more genuine experience which I'm looking forward to. I have had some really great experiences staying with locals around the world and hope to have many more in the future.

Favourite book is Band of Brothers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed Mount Ngauruhoe (Mt Doom from Lord of the Rings) on the Tongariro Alpine crossing with a German guy I'd got chatting with the night before (both Guinness drinkers so we immediately got along). One of the hardest challenges physically I've ever done but probably the most rewarding

What I Can Share with Hosts

Life experiences over a few beers and a place to crash in the UK whenever I'm home.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Belgium, France, Ireland, New Zealand, United States
