About Me

CURRENT MISSION

is to think of something better to write here

ABOUT ME

I'm me... Check my profile.

PHILOSOPHY

If everyone was the same, the world would be a very, very boring place.

Some Mark Twain quote not verbatim: Travel is fatal to prejudice, racism & bigotry.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have comfy couches, I've slept on (or passed out on) both.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All Good!

Interests

I love long walks on the beach at sunset, intimate dinners at French restaurants, oops... wrong website

I'm just interested in life & people.

I'll try almost anything once, whether it's jumping out of a plane (not that tandem thingy either), going to see a new show, band or art exhibition. Just an easy going person who's more interested in the differences rather than clinging to the familiar.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Done: I made it to work on time once! Everyone still talks about it.

Seen: The Annapurna snow capped mountains from a Pokara hotel in Nepal, on the last morning there after a week of smog. My first trip away from home, feels like so long ago, but still so vivid.
