Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I occasionally surf and go to meetings when I'm new in a city. When I'm settled somewhere I love to repay the generosity I've found on the road...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have many friends to this day that I've met on CS. And many of my new friends have been on CS all along. I started in 2006!

Interests

Coaching, Psychology, Shamanism and weird and wonderful experiences with the human mind. I also love the ideas around the 4-hour work week (even if it is more hype than real life!)

Also, electronic, experimental, latin american and african music- I used to DJ daily. I love film although am not up to date. Love docs, read for learning, saving good literature for retirement :-/

Would like to explore the outdoors, a hobby best followed-up by a nice meal with friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

when i seriously think about it, learning spanish from scratch (and to a large extent portuguese too) absolutely blows my mind. it´s possibly the only dream i've ever followed through from beginning to end, up until now. it's changed my life and it's complete trajectory forever. it's like having a second personality and culture that i can tap into whenever i want. two or more languages are normal for many people nowadays, but as a terminally monolingual englishman i can never not take this for granted.

oh and i swam in a lake in the top of a volcano in the middle of a lake in the middle of a country surrounded by two oceans. answers on a postcard as to where..

Teach, Learn, Share

I can talk about love, dating and relationships until the sun comes up! I can teach some coaching techniques to help solve problems and make decisions. I speak some languages.

I really want to learn to dance, yoga, and martial arts to get my body more bendy!
