CURRENT MISSION

To show that hospitality and friendship is not dead

ABOUT ME

We're a gay (now civil partnered) couple and have been together over 10 years. We're a friendly, easy going couple. One of us is of English/Irish origins, the other Indian/Arabic.

We like food, friends, travelling, meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Let's make this world a better place

Treat others as you yourself wish to be treated.

Everyone has something to teach you, it's just knowing what the right question is.

Make love not war.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We've been hosts to a few people now. Yet to try being CSs ourselves. And we've been telling all our friends about this project and getting them involved.
