CURRENT MISSION

Make this summer's work trips count!

ABOUT ME

There once was a couple called Alex and Lou
Who thought it was time they tried something new
So they took the empty spare bed
And filled it instead
With a visiting traveller or two!

PHILOSOPHY

"Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've hosted a few couchsurfers now and as well as spending some memorable evenings and weekends hanging out, have made some new friends too. We also recommend the Cambridge coachsurfing group - a really friendly bunch of locals!

Interests

Good food and wine, walking - preferably in the mountains, foreign films, photography, modern art, reading the papers on a Saturday morning with a coffee, how the internet can be used as a tool for educational collaboration, meditation, general geeky pastimes - from Linux coding to Dr Horrible and a guilty addiction to celebrity gossip.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitch-hiked to Perpignan train station in France and was picked up by the guy who then drove the train to Paris! Life really is full of chance meetings.

Teach, Learn, Share

Alex is a great cook while Lou has an uncanny knack of remembering obscure song lyrics...
