CURRENT MISSION

Figuring things out; secret projects.

ABOUT ME

Calm, open-minded, creative, exceedingly sarcastic, busy person with an interest in almost anything.

PHILOSOPHY

Hmm, well I'm quite left-wing I guess and I care deeply about social issues, life is short and you live once and I believe in spending your time wisely and being happy, even if the journey to that happiness is a difficult one. Don't settle. "When you're finished changing, you're finished" - Franklin, I think.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I signed up recently... my friends have done couch surfing a bit but I don't know where to start. Plan to begin hosting at some point this year once I have a couple of things out of the way and get my head around the couch surfing thing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None, yet!

Interests

Reading, Music, Film, Science, Art, Literature, Photography, People, Travel (I guess that might be obvious), Cats - but I don't have one right now, other than one I have adopted that lives in my street, Chocolate, Playing Guitar, the outdoors, hiking, running, swimming, being a geek, making a poor effort to learn Spanish, writing, going out, drinking good wine and beer, chatting. Football, sometimes. Oh, and I'm addicted to current affairs.
