CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to travel, to try new things, meet new people, challenge my own perception of the world and most importantly have a good time doing so.

ABOUT ME

I'm Jim i'm 27 Year’s old and I love to travel! I like good food and hope that I can sample new and exciting cuisine on my travels, I also enjoy meeting new people. I'm very laid back and enjoy cracking jokes and having a laugh. I try to take at least a month off each year to travel the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Make the most of every opportunity and embrace adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch-surfed all over the world and have thoroughly enjoyed every couch-surfing experience I have had. I love embracing local culture and tradtion, seeing more than the average tourist and really building an in depth understanding of the way in which people live/lived in different parts of the world. Couchsurfing is a great way of doing this.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really only read factual pieces about new developments in the world of IT and science these days but I also enjoy a good old fashioned novel every now and then. This year I have been mostly reading Dickens!

Being technologically inclined, I have an 85" full HD TV and love watching documentaries about lost civilizations and spectacular wildlife.

I'm also a very musical person. I am often found singing and whistling without even realizing I'm doing it - I often get praised for my whistling when I'm out in public! I also taught myself to play the piano and am a member of a Brass Band when I'm at home.
