Overview
About Me
I'm a laid back guy but I enjoy stepping outside my comfort zone every so often. I like to explore.. it is my curiosity about the world that sparks this. This same curiosity drives my interest for getting to know other cultures and customs.. something I find fascinating.
PHILOSOPHY
I'm still trying to find it; to know myself and to know others. To be considerate but also challenge injustice. To remove sources of discomfort and to help others do the same.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've surfed extensively and now have the opportunity to host to pay on the hospitality I received. I've met up with couchsurfing groups in various locations too.
I think couchsurfing should be used for more than just finding a place to sleep.. it is an excellent way to share culture and spread ideas as well as getting to know an individual.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I couchsurfed my way from Norway to Turkey and picked up friends and stories along the way. I've hosted at my parents home in Kent and my flat I London too.. sometimes its more fun that surfing!
Interests
I have interests in sport (particularly football, so if you play maybe we can share a game), science, philosophy, literature, film, and many more subjects! I usually have an opinion on a matter but I am more than happy to learn about a subject too. I enjoy occasionally drinking and socializing which has lead me to try performing at open mic nights and even led me to joining a band.
Music, Movies, and Books
Pulp Fiction, Contact, 2001 a Space Odyssey (and everything else by Stanley Kubrick), The Strokes, The Arctic Monkeys, The Smiths, The Beatles, Catch 22, Dune, Fight Club.. just to name a few
