I like lots of things. I love lots of people.

I sometimes talk to and often hug trees. I talk to my plants, sometimes singing to them (though I have a terrible voice).

I used to work in theatre: lighting operating/rigging/designing, acting, producing

I am now a trained counsellor (therapist) and a Reiki Master but am not doing either of these things much since I graduated.

I used to work as an office / facilities manager until I turned into a zombie and my soul demanded I leave. I like my soul.

Now I'm no longer a zombie, I've finished my studies and am facing into a fertile void, I'm re-integrating and discovering old passions and loves such as free jazz and dancing and walking.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I love experiencing new places through meeting people, usually an invitation is what has prompted me to travel. I'm hoping that through couch surfing I can extend that network of people and places and get to see more of the world.

Why now in particular?
I've just left my job and am going to take 3-6 months out to do some Woofing (working on organic farms) and a little bit of travelling.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I received my Reiki Masters Attunement, that was pretty amazing,.... also pretty amazed by the five orchids that are still alive after three years of living with me in various houses. They pretty much amaze me every day with their beauty.

Insegna, impara, condividi

Not entirely sure what I could teach, though possibly how to understand a Shakespearean monologue?
Learn, always open to learning anything
Share, reiki energy, anything I have
