Overview
About Me
Currently on a trip around the globe.
I’m an outgoing guy who loves to meet new people and experience new things. I’m very laid back and usually go with the flow
I have a huge passion for food, exploring places and also helping others. This has been the case throughout my travels by teaching locals (both kids and adults, English as I go).
Lately, I have been paying it forward in the couch surfing way by picking up hitchhikers or giving lifts to people whenever I can and have access to a car.
I love being outdoors. Whether hiking up a mountain, looking around a local garden, training in the gym or just cycling around the city.
I’m a big believer in respecting people’s homes, time and lifestyles
Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books
Where do I start? I LOVE all 3! My music taste is very widespread.
From Classical to Rock, Jazz to Rap. I love dance music and also going to festivals and seeing live performances.
As a kid I used to constantly watch movies and my dad bought me up with some of the all time greats. Good will hunting, The Green Mile, Gladiator, 12 angry men, A fistful of Dollars, all the god fathers. Then I’m a secret fan of most animated movies by Pixar and Disney.
Books are varied, a mix of personal development and biographies. The chimp paradox, Shoe Dog, The 4 hour work week, Green Light, Atlas of the heart, Rich dad poor dad etc.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Stopped my fitness business of 11 years, sold most of my possessions and I’m now travelling the world. Currently on my 18th country of this trip and 41 in total. Only 100+ more to go ha!
Diving with Bull sharks in Fiji. Hiking the highest or 2nd highest peak in most of the countries I’ve been to. Being invited to a Tribal Thai funeral ceremony (that was one memory I’ll never forget)
Teach, Learn, Share
Since starting this journey I have learnt so much about different countries, the culture, the places to go and the small unheard of things to see. I would love to show and discuss any willing host all of this and more. Plus I know some amazing sunrise, sunset, hiking, diving and the best hidden gems to eat around the world.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Great company and conversation.
I can cook us up a meal (which I wouldn’t mind doing at all).
I love giving any info or help on the countries I’ve travelled to and visited. Some of the best things to see and the other info in between.
