About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Eco living and slacklife

ABOUT ME

I finished university last year and had the urge to travel. A long story short, I ended up living on an eco city farm and hitch hiking all over Europe looking for the best slackline spots. I also like skating and take my slack line everywhere with me. If you meet me you will definitely get to have a go, its too much fun. I'm always up for a mission and enjoy meeting new people and experiencing different cultures. I'm chilled out and am willing to go where ever. I know every one says that so it doesn't actually tell you anything about me, but it basically means I say no problem a lot.

PHILOSOPHY

TEA - I vow that where ever I go and what ever conditions I face I will have the power to make myself a cup of tea.

Other general thoughts include:

Be the change you want to see in the world - Gandhi

The best things in life are free - Mum

Let's try to un-fuck the world

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Used cough surfer for travelling and now want to give back to community by hosting and letting people experience this little piece of paradise.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed with quite a few people, from tiny apartments, when the person has had to go to work and i have to leave the house in the day, to houses where the hosts have left me the place to myself for the weekend. From experiences hosts to first timers.

Interests

Skating, slack lining, missions, good conversations, world politics and currant affairs, Joking around.

I would rather meet the people than see the sighs, I can appreciate architectural but the buildings are not the things I am gonna remember when this is over.
You learn about the people they will teach you about the country just by being.

  • politics
  • traveling
  • guitar
  • hiking

Music, Movies, and Books

I love watching films and really should read more books.

Love all music apart from heavier types of metal (I like metal heads they good people) and will dance to anything that's got a solid beat, but mostly listen to chilled out stuff like reggae. Songs with amazing lyrical content are my favorite, what ever the genre.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was travelling last I broke both my arms but 2 plates and 12 pins later I carried on anyway. This mad this a little difficult but didn't stop me.

Hitch hiked to vienna. this was my first time hitching apart from one time before in england. Test the theory - then apply it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a native English speakers so if you need some practice it can't hurt. I can teach you how to skate or how to slack line which is so much fun you might just get addicted. Also if you are interested I could help you make a hydroponic window farm for under £20 (http://www.windowfarms.org/) I just finished mine and am growing basil, parsley and coriander, it really easy fun and sustainable.

I would like to learn how to play the guitar but am not very good with musical things, however if any one wants to teach me how to surf that would be amazing.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Cambodia, Fiji, France, Germany, Laos, Netherlands, New Zealand, Thailand, Turkey, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
