CURRENT MISSION

Jumping over the dog poo in Buenos Aires without getting it up my trouser leg

ABOUT ME

I've just finished a year and a half trip travelling and working in New Zealand and some of South America. Back at home in Norwich now and missing the travels but it's nice to feel settled for a bit.

Training for the London Marathon right now.

PHILOSOPHY

As in the famous words of Yoda "Do or do not, there is no try"

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I've couch surfed in New Zealand and Buenos Aires and had fun chats with hosts over cups of tea and maté.

Once I get my own place I can host other couch surfers.
