CURRENT MISSION

The only things worth living for are innocence and magic.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in the UK but it couldn't hold me, now I'm looking for a home.

I'm a poet. I feel trapped in words but I know they can't define the world around us so I travel to find some kind of definition.

This is me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoSOmJj_Owo

I love to read, I love to dance, and I love to drink.

I have Compulsive Good Time Disorder. I talk too much, I sneeze too loudly, I'm drunk too often, and my smile looks like my mouth is turning inside out. I'm ruthlessly loyal, I'm horrifically stubborn, and I'm far too proud.

Apart from that I wanna hear your ideas, your stories, what makes you tick and what you think swims faster, a dog or a horse.

I'm not needy and you don't need much to accommodate me, just a floor will do. In the last few months I've slept in back rooms of bars, 5 to a bed, and on too many modes of transport to count.

PHILOSOPHY

Use all that heart, hope, and soul that you've got; the love and rage that you feel in your gut.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to live in Bangkok and I hosted mostly and held a few too many parties for our landlord's liking. A lot, in fact. The community is different there and many aren't official requests because all the hosts know eahc other so couchsurfers get passed around! I've surfed a few times and now Im back on the road, I want to surf more.

Music, Movies, and Books

Time Traveler's Wife, anything about time travel, human social experiments or a good old tear jerker.

I love a good British film. I'm not very patriotic but I love some subtle humour and intricate characters.

Music needs it's own category. I love everything from Frank Turner to a good bit of tropical house.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After living in Bangkok for 3 years, I looked at my life one day, packed my things and hopped on a plane to the other side of the world to start a brand new life in Guatemala.

1. The Question Book by Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschappeler is the best tool for getting to know people and for being able to ask great questions of people.

2. Snails can sleep for up to three years

3. On the east coast of Thailand near Ranong, there is an island so small it rarely shows up on maps. It's called Koh Mannai but it is home to the Thai Queen's Sea Turtle Conservation Project
