CURRENT MISSION

to take time and enjoy what's in front of me.

ABOUT ME

I like to think about things, listen to people talk, explore new places, to read, to run and ride bikes. I have a wife and a son, and I'm trying to finish a PhD in philosophy.

PHILOSOPHY

I could always be wrong about something... but it's always going to be worth taking time to talk about it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just started... keen to contribute.

Interests

Like I said above, I read a lot, think a lot (probably not very deeply often), and I love to ride - on the road and on mountain trails. Add a bit of running, a bit of poetry, philosophy and theology, and finish it off with a well-cooked meal at the end of the day and I'm pretty happy. Oh, and some good coffee in there, too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching my son grow up is amazing: new things every week, new capabilities forming in front of your eyes, a whole other world looking back at you.
