Overview
About Me
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I can host people sometimes, work and housemates permitting. Can meet up for a beer, a chat, or a bike ride (I even have a spare bike).
I've only couch-surfed twice, but both were absolutely brilliant experiences.
Interests
Craft, sewing, art, cycling around town and sometimes further, the view from transport, all animals but particularly dogs, psychology, politics, philosophy.

Music, Movies, and Books
engaging classic fiction, trying to work my way through all the psychology and philosophy background reading I should have done to augment my studies but haven't yet, well past the mid-way of my quest to listen to every This American Life episode (currently on leave from that pursuit though but happy to reminisce). In regards to music, I always seem to end up coming back to the music my parents played me on road trips when I was a kid (Beatles, Mammas and Pappas, Monkeys, Simon and Garfunkel)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most happy/tranquil moment of my life was in Iceland, watching "icebergs" that had splintered off Europe's biggest glacier wash up on a black pebbly beach. I spent a really long time on the beach captivated by the scene, until the friend I was travelling with told me we better leave because he thought he might be getting frostbite.
