CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world and assist others in doing the same!

ABOUT ME

I came to Austin in 2005 for UT, and like so many others have become ensnared by its charm. I am from England originally, and the US is my fifth country. My parents currently reside in Cape Town, South Africa, and I have been very fortunate to visit them a number of times.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is good, and should be lived as such. It is through sharing our happiness with others that we make this world a better place.

Rules are for the obedience of fools, and the guidance of wise men.

In the words of an Italian waiter and coffee shop owner in Amsterdam -
There are two things I can think of that we can all do to change the world:
1. Be nicer to others
2. Plant trees
I would like to add a third: Couch surf!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host, I surf, and I tell the world one person at a time. Your contribution to the global couch surfing network starts with the next conversation about your experience with this amazing community, so join the revolution!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a semi permanent couch surfer for three months, and I stayed in Budapest and Vienna while traveling through Europe. I had amazing experiences in both places! My hosts were so welcoming and friendly, and made sure that myself and my fellow traveling buddies felt right at home. I have also hosted some amazing folks, and will hopefully host many more.

I have hosted a couple of cool cats, and I look forward to meeting more of you guys!

Gladiator, Fight Club, Inception, The Matrix, The Road to Perdition, Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Battle Star Galactica. I also play lots of board games

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Being 6 inches away from a great white shark, underwater, while cage diving in Cape Town.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

There are two questions that I make a point of asking any interesting person that I come across:

1. Favorite book
2. Favorite recipe

Share the wealth of experience, knowledge and good food with your next host/surfer!
