Hello, I am Jez.

I'm too busy over the summer with festivals and trips away to host but you can ask me questions and I'll try and give advice!

I live in an little square in London, just like Eastenders (but without the drama!) I like listening to music from swing to ska to drum and bass to punk to nineties pop . I used to have pink hair but now it's brown. I still wear bright clothes - I'm not very discreet. I like hanging out with children and grown ups who laugh like children. I am vegetarian who doesn't like mushrooms so life is somewhat tricky sometimes. ("I eat like a vegan mostly, but sometimes I want some cheese on my toastie...")

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a couch in the ladybird lounge and you are welcome to come and stay.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted couchsurfers in the squat where I used to live and my current colourful house. I have surfed a few couches myself here, there and Luxembourg. All good!

I make up little songs and go around singing them. Jez Sings Things... you'll see!

Music, Movies, and Books

I liked reading the Phantom Tollbooth, The History of Love, The Collector... stories like. I'm studying too so at the moment I'm reading a lot of books about health, children and politics! I like listening to fast music! And slow music. Energetic. Beautiful. I like films that make me laugh or make me cry or speak to my soul.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I played a gig in a Lithuanian prison. Just like Johnny Cash.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can knit and I can show you how to make a lighter-holder (beginner) / dress (intermediate) / pile of spaghetti (three stages before beginner)
I can share my books with you!

What I Can Share with Hosts

If I come and stay I can share my songs, my stories, my sense of humour, my drinks and my cooking skills with you!
