CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world, meet new people and make it a better place to live

ABOUT ME

Friendly guy who likes to travel and meet people from different nations. I have travelled in Europe, North America, Africa and Asia. Originally from England, although I grew up in Denmark.

I have worked as a teacher in Bangkok, Thailand, but my last job was in soft sales in Dundalk, Ireland. Now I am moving to Edinburgh to work in a Danish Customer Service Position in December 2014.

Besides I like reading historical novels and I sometimes translated at international meetings back in Denmark.

PHILOSOPHY
Helping others is what gives life meaning and value.
Nobody can help everybody, but everybody can help somebody!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like couchsurfing a lot.

If you are travelling through Edinburgh, Scotland you are welcome to write to me and perhaps we can meet for a chat in town or go sightseeing together.

If I am free I'd love to show you some of the interesting sights. I'd also love to meet up with people to visit sights or go on trips in the area or just to hang out for a drink.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
