CURRENT MISSION

I'm living and working in Taiwan. A very small town in the central county Yunlin.

ABOUT ME

I was born in Plymouth in the south west of england. I went to uni in hull and met some wonderful people there and stayed for a long time to build a career. I then quit england and moved to various countrues in Asia to work and travel. I go back to visit friends and family which i love doing but who knows where 'home' will be?!

PHILOSOPHY

I think we've all got to get through this life one way or another- lets make it a bit more pleasant for all concerned! Also don't mistake kindness for weakness and make tea not war!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Life has been very interesting for me from the start and i love that i have so many varied memories. i try to respond to everything in a positive, assertive manner but it's not always easy! I love food and music and if there are both at the same time i am very happy! I love being outdoors but am a rather moderate adventurer in this respect! I love listening to other peoples stories!!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is the first time i have ventured into the realm of coychsurfing! Wish me luck!

Interests

Love live music and food - shop!ping for food, cooking food and eating food! Love vintage shops whether its clothes and shoes or books and furniture - one persons rubbish is anothers treasure! Have been bitten by the travel bug in the last few years and now i have no idea what the future holds!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dharavhi slums in Mumbai and the dhobi ghats. The scenary of Orkney. The mountains in Asia. Sorry, more than one but cannot decide the most amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

From personal experience I learned not to let a broken shoe end your hike to the summit. Just adapt said footwear, even if it does look a bit odd!
