About Me

I am outgoing, love to travel and am basically trying to absorb as many experiences as I can. Enjoy spending time with friends and I am very social and love to interact with others.
Love to laugh and love a good chat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Was introduced by a friend who recommended as a good way to interact with people from the countries I visit.

Interests

I love to travel (obviously), interested in making thing out of timber and enjoy little bits of most things. I also enjoy cooking and eating the end product.

  • cooking
  • traveling
  • religion

Music, Movies, and Books

I have eclectic music taste, not into rap, big fan of the 80's and anything that sounds good.
Love movies, "Fight Club", "Cinema Paradiso", "Fiddler on the Roof",
Books : I do not read as much as I hoped to, lost by kindle in Nepal, so that has cut my reading off, prematurely.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well I definitely did not discover a cure for cancer, but I am currently on the road now. Over half way into a 1.5 yr trip, got to tick off a lot of bucket list items.
Sat and chatted to an Aghori holy man who practise canabalism in Varanasi, India.

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to teach, enjoyed teaching English to monks in Laos. Seriously, considering teaching English as a second language in the very near future.
Learning is one of the benefits of travelling, whilst travelling through India, learnt so much about the culture and religions, more importantly learnt about myself.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Travelled extensively, pushing 20 countries. My breadth of interests gives me knowledge in some many areas. Love to talk and have had many life experiences that I love to share with anyone willing to listen
