About Me

I am a Brit currently residing in Kazakhstan but still do a lot of traveling...

I work remotely for Clients in the UK and the US as a Branding Specialist in Internet Marketing; I also work on websites as well i.e. small ones on my own or Project Manage a team in India and the Philippines for the larger ones.

I also do Voice Over work for a couple of TV channels - so I have more than enough to keep me busy...

All we ask is that you fill the fridge with a little food and bring us a little souvenir from your home country - or where you have been last! )))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy having guests stay and hearing stories etc. I have hosted guests already for a friend and I am excited to do it for ourselves here on Couch Surfing; we have a nice place here and I want to tot-up some Brownie Points as next year I will be wanting to be on the couch! )))

Interests

My hobbies are making YouTube videos, Cooking and making Cheese )))

I also teach English as a great way of interacting with the locals where I can be confident there will be enough English; this is also how I met my girlfriend! )))

Music, Movies, and Books

*****
MUSIC
*****

I don't have a specific type of music; I tend to listen to "BBC Radio" over the internet and if I like something enough to listen to it again - will try to find it on YouTube!

*****
MOVIES
*****

When I think of "movies" I think of the Cinema experience... Since I have been in Kazakhstan for 2 years now and it is difficult to find films in English, I therefore haven't been to the Cinema for two years!

The two types of film I usually go for are either Romance, Action or (if at all possible) both!

*****
BOOKS
*****

I don't have much spare time right now and since a lot of my work revolves around reading reference material, the last thing I want to do when I have spare time is read some more!

I do however tend to read on holiday and usually look for anything written by Dan Brown.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recruited 824 dentists from Germany, Spain and Poland for the NHS and have been a Governor of a School with no Children! :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I make Video Tutorials and put them on Youtube to help anyone interested in things to do with IT...
