CURRENT MISSION

To go everywhere, and see everything.... Guess I'll have to live forever

ABOUT ME

My go-by name is Will, I am a traveler, pure and simple. My parents took me travelling ever since I was a kid, and I haven't been able to stop since. New experiences, knowledge, sensations, people, cultures, philosophies and ways of life is a necessity for me. Un-stimulating conversation and repetitiveness are pretty much the only things that can kill my joy, for I am a very happy person, who see the world without judgement, and with an insatiable thirst for more! As such my interests are many and varied - I'll include a short cv, as I like to work with whatever interests me:

Diving (Divemaster, professional)
Bagpiping (musical performer)
Handicap assistant
Teaching
Babysitting (Childcare, experience with 3-16 olds)
Acting/directing (Amateur)
Street performing
First aid/Emergency responder
Historical provider, tourism (specialty in the Viking Age)
Shop assistant
Teaching English
Humanities
Religious studies, Theology

I'll probably add a bit more info, when I am not writing on a phone in a hostel, in a city as interesting as Rome ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

Life, people and the world is far too complicated and varied to be pinned down in a few sentences. As much as I have tried, I have never been able to find a neat little saying that encompasses everything I am and believe in, sorry ;-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started as a surfer, then hosted a few people while I was studying in Denmark, but now I'm abroad again. The fact that this is free, is not at all important to me, but it is a BRILLIANT way of meeting people, and truly getting to know a city (screw going to the famous sights for a couple of snaps)! If I come to your place, I solemnly promise not to use it as a hotel, - travelling is about the people you meet!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It has been Great! Couchsurfing is the way for me, sadly it can be a bit difficult to find hosts as a guy, but seriously, where has this been all my life?

Interests

Look in the above cv, I very rarely do something that doesn't interest me (even as a shop-assistant, I loved talking to so many people every day). Beyond that I am a major reader, movie and theater-goer, history and religion is a passion. Pretty much everything interests me, this could be a long list if I go into detail...

• humanities
• writing
• theater
• acting
• vegan
• shopping
• traveling
• socializing
• scuba diving
• divinity
• history
• religion
• tourism

Music, Movies, and Books

Phew, can I get back to you on that one? It is on my to-do to write a list of the movies, books and music that have influenced me the most, but that's a project...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
