About Me

CURRENT MISSION

not to let life pass me by

ABOUT ME

I am an adventurous outdoorsy person. Pretty full of energy and always up for a challenge. I like to bike, run, walk, explore and meet new people and share experiences. Basically anything that keeps me outdoors and travelling. I am a bit accident prone, but I don't let that stop me doing anything so I've been left with some pretty funny stories out of it.

PHILOSOPHY

Always have an open mind and don't take yourself too seriously.

"Dream as if you'll live forever, live as though you'll die today" James Dean

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new, but I have surfed and hosted and just enjoy meeting new people and sharing experiences. I will show people around any place that I know and host whenever I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I cycled around Turkey and Iran. Most people invited us into their homes and gave us a place to stay. They weren't on this site, just kind people we met along the way. It was a great way to learn about the places we were in and see more than we might usually see.

Interests
