CURRENT MISSION

Be Happy, Be Friendly, Be Rich (Family, health & fortune)

ABOUT ME

I am an enthusiastic, hard working person who loves a laugh. I don't smoke, and I don't get drunk. I love good food, wine and a quiet resturant. I have been married to my wife Margaret for 21 years and we have two fantastic daughters.

PHILOSOPHY

I have a very strong sense of right and wrong - I haven't always been this way, but now live my life by the philosophy "your attitude is infectious - what you put out is what you get back"!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Whilst travelling around Australia for a year in 2003, we were welcomed into some wondeful 'strangers' lives. To meet locals enriches the travel experience.

Interests

Almost everything, animals, places, people and travel. Machines, electronics, computers and photography. I can talk the leg off a chair (Marg says "ALL the legs of a chair"!).

Music, Movies, and Books
