ABOUT ME

Read on and hopefully you'll get a good idea

PHILOSOPHY

Make the most of the gift of life before you're too old/boring to do anything about it.
Never confuse cheap thrills for the things that bring you real joy in life.
Your integrity and beliefs are who you are. Never forget them.

Never trust anyone who tells you running a health service/country is like running a shop

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Heading down the West Coast of North America in April and all over Europe with my girlfriend Shir from June to August, looking for people to host me.

You're welcome to skype me if considering hosting me, excuse my terrible skype name - add me jimmy.boy2000

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 18 I went to live in Argentina for 5 months. I stayed with a family in Cordoba for two months, learning Spanish and working in an orphanage before going travelling. Awesome 5 months.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am proficient in swearing across several different languages and am always happy to share this wisdom.

Ever since I found out Chinese food is not really chinese food, I've always been fascinated to know how people from every country actually cook. Teach me!
