Retired school principal, married to Robyn also a former teacher. Have three children and eleven grand children. We have travelled extensively in all continents and love opportunities to meet locals.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Enjoy meeting people from a wide range of countries and broadening understanding of different cultures. Having a grandson travelling in Europe and being welcomed by Couchsurfers has prompted us to provide a family environment for travellers who may be a long way from home!
