About Me

CURRENT MISSION

looking for one

ABOUT ME

I like to think I am easy going and a nice person to be around, or at least I try to be. I enjoy meeting new people and doing new things. having graduated from university and spent a while working I have decided to take a break from these things and have a wander around and see what else is out there.

PHILOSOPHY

treat people as you would like to be treated... something like that i suppose

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

so far I have used couchsurfing as a guest but hope one day when circumstances are right, to also act as a host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have travelled and stayed with people in turkey and the czech republic and always found people from the CS community to be kind and welcoming

Interests

People, while i like all the inanimate things of the world as well, its people who can show you there things and you can show them yours... and so you end up with twice the knowledge, as do they hopefully
but to be more specific:
music
art (of all kinds, most things turn out to be art anyway)
playing sport
rock climbing
reading
eating
drinking
films
meeting new people
most things really i am not fussy

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

the sensation of falling off a cliff

Teach, Learn, Share

sounds good

What I Can Share with Hosts

“You give but little when you give of your possessions.
It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.”

while i subscribe to this quote, I also enjoy cooking and am happy to do so. As English is my first language I would be happy to talk with people who want to improve their own. although I shamefully do not speak any other languages, but this would perhaps be an opportunity for me to learn!
