CURRENT MISSION

Traveling the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm Mark and I'm a Scottish guy currently traveling around the world and will be on the road until Feb 08. Most of my social life back home is taken up playing, rehearsing or recording with my band. Outwith the band I love going to gigs and festivals and meeting cool new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Follow your dreams and your dreams will follow.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It's all very new to me but I hope to participate as much as I possibly can.

Interests

I love writing, playing and listening to music. I also love to read, mostly biographies of people who have inspired me. I love nothing more than meeting new people from different countries and cultures.
