ABOUT ME

www.DrDanWeaver.com Kind warm gentle friendly. I love dogs and good talks and real fires and making stuff and rambling around (in words and world) and getting into the bath in clothes sometimes and learning languages even made up ones and playing with kids and stretching and laughing until crying and watching people do crazy stuff on YouTube and putting Spotify on with lyrics to sing karaoke. I like looking at stars and thinking of stories and going for long walks at night and watching people guessing at life and guessing what their lives are about and talking to strangers and listening to clever people or people who have life experience or just know and love me. I like pictures and photos and colours and smells and touch. I'm not religious but quite spiritual in a way. I've travelled a fair bit, lived and worked in eg Argentina, New Zealand, Bangladesh, Honduras. Next trips will likely be to Myanmar and Venezuela, Philippines and India.
I work at Nottingham Uni where I've been for some years but really I'm a creative looking for something I haven’t yet found. All kinds of people can affect life's path so let’s meet! Normality-wise I enjoy windsurfing, cycling, yoga, camping, walking and diving (divemaster in the past). Also enjoy optimism, cynicism, joy, poetry and chat. Please don't wait for me to email you- I may never find you- the internet is a strange beast- make contact and let’s have a walk! Hugs, Dan.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I log on and get lost in it for 2 hours at a time. Then realise Ive not done anything productive but prefer life to money-making work. Travelling often in the area now. Come and stay with me.
