CURRENT MISSION

Exploration with mind wide open to catch as much as possible and a notepad to remember it all with

ABOUT ME

i studied art. that was brilliant - the tutors taught me to disagree with them and how to think using things other than words. after that i lived for a couple of years in an abandoned village in the pre-pyrenees, learning about self-sufficiency and different ways to make a life. now i'm back in england, learning landscape gardening and figuring out how to write a phd on the languages of fine art and maths. i also love improvised singing with whoever can play instruments; i can't get my head around instruments but love to play with new people, so i learnt to do that.

PHILOSOPHY

i've had my head excitingly cracked open a few times during my life, and that's why i've found myself fascinated by cracking into the universes inhabited by different people that i meet. i want to explore as much as possible!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i'm travelling around a bit to go to art and maths conferences and things, and to explore and meet excellent people and places. i'm currently sofa-surfing in brighton so can't offer a sofa, sadly, but am looking to come and meet exciting people in the places i'm going to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

met a french guy in brighton to show him around with my housemate, we showed him some excellent bars and had a great time!

Interests

glorious music, art and the excited discussion thereof, geeky appreciation of maths. and comics. and the x files. pathological addiction to books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

6 positive-minded spanish twenty-somethings, building and maintaining a very reasonable standard of mostly independent living, growing food and rebuilding a house, without ever asking to be shown how.

Teach, Learn, Share

i could teach anyone to knit. or to talk about art (i LOVE doing that, it's such a simple thing to break down certain barriers). i could also share a little car-fixing stuff, and maths.
