About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to taste everything.

ABOUT ME

I'm nearly always grinning. I'm travelling to have a ridiculously good time.
I'm not one to stick to well-made plans and prefer spontaneity.

PHILOSOPHY

'I am not a logician. I am an existentialist. I believe in this meaningless, beautiful chaos of existence, and I am ready to go with it wherever it leads.' - Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm rather new to this, however very inspired. At the moment, I'm just surfing but when I have a more stable situation I'd love to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've spent many years in share housing with friendly couch stays but only a few official 'couchsurfing' adventures as yet.

Interests

I'm really interested in a grassroots way of life and real connections with people. I have a enormous passion for food, sustainability and natural health. I have wild dreams of changing the food system, in the meantime I'm learning more and more about cooking and fresh produce. I love being in the kitchen and sharing in good food. I'm hoping to WWOOF in Europe this summer.

On my days off you will probably find me lost in a market, trying to talk shop with a cheese monger, on a bike or lazing in some hard-earned sunshine.

I love adventure. I'm seeking some wilderness experiences, mountains, waterfalls and tents please! Anyone interested in some hiking and camping, I'd really like to come along.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a big fan of live music.

Some favourites are:
Tom Waits
Nick Cave
The Doors
Timber Timbre
The Black Angels
The Dead Weather
The National
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Brian Jonestown Massacre
Bon Iver
Feist

I'm trying to read through some classic books at the moment, but I like Non-Fiction food related books and Poetry.
Lolita
1984
The Catcher in the Rye
Invisible CIties
Howl

Movies are far too broad and wonderful to put into words. I'm an addict.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every single sunrise feels like a blessing.
I've ended up having the best experiences just by saying 'sure, why not?'

Teach, Learn, Share

I've got a large repertoire of self-taught cooking knowledge I'm happy to share, but please teach me more!! I ain't no chef.
I've been known to teach people to cartwheel.
