About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Come on world - show me what you've got!

ABOUT ME

Me and my bag have seen a few places on the road ... but by no means have I stopped moving yet! From creating an art collective in Hanoi (GypsyDoodleCollective), to signwriting and customising helmets in France, to printing t-shirts in Kathmandu, I love to meet local artists and get creative wherever I am at the time. I have a hunger for new places, new faces and new experiences!
In short - I'm hungry for life, so, lets EAT!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Still a 'novice' on www.couchsurfing.org ... but definitely not new to couch surfing(!!). I think this is one of the greatest functions of the internet today - it's putting the 'World Wide Web' back in the hands of those who appreciate and utilise it for what it is intended for - a tool to learn more about humanity, geography, life! Viva the World Wide Web (of couchsurfers!).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far - all good!

Interests

Being on the move, staying in one place!
Good food, good booze, good people.
Nice parties, nice places.
New experiences, new faces ...
Couches, sofas, futons, settees, chaise longues, hammocks!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sorry! I couldn't possibly choose one thing to write for this category!! Just toooo many good times and experiences!
(Plus, I don't want to give it all away before we meet up eh!)

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching, learning and sharing - these three words seem to nicely sum-up my ethos for travel (but maybe not in that order!).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I hope to share a eagerness to exchange ideas, cultures and creativity with a varieny of people across the globe, gaining knowledge and energy from all I meet and hopefully reciprocating this positivity (ideally over a cold beer!).
