CURRENT MISSION

Please read this b4 you make request. I only accept one surfer at one time so no point to sending me request if you are more than one. I appreciate yr courtesy.

I go caving regularly in mainly UK so naturally interesed in underground.

ABOUT ME

I travel regularly at least monthly abroad. At least every fortnight within UK for caving reason.

Always very short trip as I need to hang around near work. So I'm procise on what I do during a trip. One agenda is how closely I become like a local rather than touristic.

PHILOSOPHY

I graduated in Comparative religions so generally interested in religions such as place of worthip, religious art avoiding dogmatic ones.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To behave like a local the best way is to hang around with locals with cosmopolitan insight so be with CS people probabaly the best for me in some case.

Interests

Cavings, theatre (Dance, Play, Opera, ethnical), clubbing (some high quality house but mainly minimal techno) Films (avoiding Holywood some slient film with music but mainly Japanese origin film including anime)

Music, Movies, and Books

In a way anti-music so hardly listen to CDs but I go to gigs (some indie& noise but mainly contemporary classical).

Books on sprituality are on increase at the mo. In total books on religion are majority but mainly in Japanese language.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Some hard caving trips are very rewarding. For example for a part mine & part natural cave I use Single Rope Technique to go up 65m rope to get out from that vertical shaft, after so many other activities that is very satisfying.

Some other caves require hard crawling, climb & squeeze, after all those ending up in a chamber with beautiful formation is nice too.

Teach, Learn, Share

People who introduce me to totally new field of world I never knew about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

usually bring some snacks fm UK as a small gift. Spend good time with many stories!
