Humble northerner trying to see as much of this wonderful planet as possible.
Recently graduated from Lancaster University, and half-heartedly studying how to be full hearted.
Super easy-going, open-minded, open-hearted.
I'm into simple genuine living, no bs, living in the moment, and veganism!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To devote myself to the moment, meet new people, and experience the genuine and the awesome. Why would you not want to travel as much as possible?

Somewhere in Dumas' 'The Count of Monte Cristo', the count is described as a 'noble lord of all countries' - that is what I strive to be (but without the medieval hierarchy)

Interests

Making art, conversations lasting until early morning about everything and nothing, living in the 'now', poetry, dancing, rain and sunshine and all in between, telling secrets, hiking for hours and doing crazy dangerous things, climbing trees and other tall things, making food with friends, living life good and well.

Music, Movies, and Books

Jack Kerouac 'The Dharma Bums', Jorge Luis Borges 'Labyrinths', Alexandre Dumas 'The Count of Monte Cristo'.

The other two are too difficult to answer :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched a blood moon descend below the waves of Venice.
Slept wild underneath starry Scottish skies.
Swam naked in freezing Finnish lakes.
Partied on Berlin rooftops.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like storytelling, and I could write you a few poems to take with you. Or cook some tasty vegan cuisine!
I'd love to learn about your culture.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation, poetry, good food, little bits of philosophy, and the occasional pint!
