CURRENT MISSION

I was born under a wanderin' star...

ABOUT ME
Returning to the world of couchsurfing as it nourished my earlier life as solo wanderer. I return with my seven year old son, to teach him the joys of travel and adventure and world friendships.

Together we love exploring new places, cultures, food and languages.

Occasionally I might even have a little solo adventure again!

Currently we are unable to host due to rental restrictions but am hoping this can change in the not too distant future. However we are happy to show people round or give tips on good places to visit in Cornwall. I don't drive so am pretty genned up on the local public transport system (and sometimes lack thereof!)

PHILOSOPHY

to even love those I would profess to hate...!

The Thesaurus. Books about travel, art, music, life.I also like reading scores...music scores - figuring out and humming a new tune on a bus, instead of reading The Evening Standard.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Sharing my love of India with my Mum. Riding three deep on a motorbike with her and Shabir, a Kashmiri jeweller, round the backroads of Goa at breakneck speed to catch the sunset at Arumbol. I swear, I thought I was going to end up in a ditch. Seeing my Mum grinning from ear to ear made all the sunstroke,aching limbs and sore arse worth it!
This entry will probably change as time and life moves on... ;-)
