ABOUT ME

boy with wanderlust gives up...not quite right

intrepid traveler hits middle age and settles down...still not it

guy from small town America becomes temporarily sedentary in Welsh capital... a little closer

currently avoiding Covid and Brexit in Split, Croatia

not entirely sure who I am yet, let's just say I've always needed to know what was around the next bend or on the other side of the hill, and I enjoy meeting and interacting with other people and their experiences

PHILOSOPHY

it's still free to be nice

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted a few people and also met a few people and shown them around Cardiff when I didn't have a couch space.

For the past few years I've not really had a couch of my own as I was busy setting up a hostel in Cardiff, then living in a remote spot on Hvar island.
I`ve recently been between places myself so unfortunately don'the have a space to offer but will be getting a more permanent place soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I really enjoy the sense of community that couchsurfing inspires. You'll meet people that just want to crash and get on with their travels and you'll meet people who will want to share a meal or time with you.

I'm old enough to remember when 'couchsurfing' was just a term and not the great community it's developed into today.

Either way and everything in between, couchsurfing is a great platform to travel, see the world, meet new people, and experience life without spending a fortune!
