About Me

Hi,
I am a flexible and easy going 27 years old. I am passionate about cycling, with and without gears, with one or two wheels, on road and on track, racing or touring! I am very interested in all things scottish (whisky, golf, rain), engineering (aeronautical or otherwise) and sports. But I guess above all I like trying out new experiences, and being sociable by nature, I enjoy meeting people with whom to share these new experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing because I can escape anywhere in the world on my own, and yet not be alone when I get there.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

when I was 18 years old, my dad and I completed a Spanish cycle ride which was 210 kms long.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach the basics of bicycle maintenance and repair; but there's still a lot I can learn in this domain! I like sharing any experience related to cycling, whether it's a daily commute to work, or a trans-Andes trek.
I can teach the basics of Scotland's finest peat whiskies; I can obviously share my taste for it by serving out a glass or two!
I can also tell you how aeroplanes fly...

What I Can Share with Hosts

my utterly shocking cuisine; my English sense of humour; my love for the American poet Robert Frost; my fascination for the mountains and the outdoors in general.
