Overview
About Me
Recently moved to Kingston, ON - no hosting ability but very interested in meeting up :)
CURRENT MISSION
Just to be clear...
1) No references=no couch
2) Copy and paste request (no personalisation)=no couch
3) Requests for more than one person=no couch
4) Requests sent as a message instead of as a couch request=no couch (and probably no reply either!)
Basically, if you want free stuff, be prepared to put in some effort another way.
ABOUT ME
I'm a 44 year-old single guy with a good sense of humour and an appetite for variety in life. I get bored easily! I'm British by birth and Canadian through parentage and I have a nomadic lifestyle through house-sitting. I'm gay but I wouldn't say it's the most important part of who I am.
PHILOSOPHY
Live for the day, but plan lots of fun things to look forward to :-)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I haven't been involved in CS for quite a while now and when I do, it's because I'm looking for events and people to hang out with.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I enjoyed inviting people into my home and showing them around my local area of Greenwich and then got to meet a bunch of amazing hosts in North America and Europe. I've found I've got on with chattier people the best as well as those who have come with the intention of spending at least some time together.

Movies - BIG fan of horror, even if most of it is bad, and I love non-mainstream/independent/world cinema.
Famous films I love: Carrie, Poltergeist, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Gremlins, Shaun Of The Dead, Women On The Verge Of A Nervous Breakdown
Cult films I love: Hedwig And The Angry Inch, The Warriors, Clue, Nueve Reinas
Books - not a huge devourer of literature, but enjoy a good thriller. Also love reading travel guides and dreaming about the next destination.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Being chased by rogue fireworks at La Corda in Valencia, Spain. Reverse bungee-jumping was pretty intense too!
Teach, Learn, Share
I am a qualified language teacher (English, Spanish, French, Italian), so I can help you with your languages.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A respectful attitude, lots of laughs and a little token of my appreciation.
