About Me

I’m no longer living in Barcelona and haven’t updated my profile.

English lad living and working in BCN. I've been living on and off in Spain for many years and now consider it home.
I love barcelona because it's a great place to meet amazing people from all over the world. (Plus the fact that there is just about the right balance between work and beach, good living, the best parties, and the laid back attitude the Spanish are known for)
Full disclosure, I'm gay. No big deal but I wouldn't want any uncomfortable situation for anyone.
Oh and I have a dog which loves to have visitors so expect to get some loving.

It has to be said, I like to meet interesting people but I hope that all that contact me aren't just looking for a place to stay. Its a two way street.

oh and I am loving the type of people I'm making contact with on CS.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy the diversity of having friends all over the world and I have some free space.
If I'm lucky I can find some like minded people for my travels.

Interests

Love being outside.
I'm up for anything.
Likes: electro house, beach, traveling, cultural diversion, festivals, interesting conversation, off the wall fun ideas, VIP parties to underground, circuit, watching my plants grow.
Dislikes: the cold, one minded people, fish (although there are some exceptions)

Music, Movies, and Books

I've seen most action/sci-fi block busters but wouldn't say am a fanatic, just like them. Seen I think all the Marvel movies. Most of the books I've really got into have at some point become a movie. (they didn't do the books justice, but that's standard)
As for music, depends on what I'm doing and where I am.
Chillout on the terrace, jazz open air, pop sometimes, but mostly house, from funky to deep to electro.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's not so easy to answer.
I've done a lot of things I love but to mention just one means ranking them and they are up there in my opinion but that's because I loved doing them.
So, here are some but no order or importance:
•Scuba-diving PADI in Thialand.
•Abseiled down a building of 27 floors for charity.
•Walked the untouched part of Great Wall of China.
•Partied in an exclusive VIP party in Newyork for pride.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't pretend to have anything to teach but I can share my experiences, take from that as you will.
If I know something then happy to share.
I hope to learn what it is to mean living in the places I visit. The real side of things.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I guess it would be my experiences.
I love to travel so enjoy conversing on the subject.
Im not a bad cook, but have to admit, I have to download the recipes.
I always have a smile, they can be contagious, so I'm told.
