CURRENT MISSION

To travel about, meet lovely people, and leave them happier than I found them.

ABOUT ME

Hey, I'm Magnus, I'm an itinerant fire performer/stilt-walker/DJ based in Bristol. I travel about the place doing ridiculous things, and often need couch/floor space to crash on in random places. I am a pretty good cook, so I'm always happy to help pay for my board with some tasty food!

I'm currently in India teaching circus to vulnerable children with Performers Without Borders!

I also have a sofabed available for people passing through Bristol.

PHILOSOPHY

'You and I are all as much continuous with the physical universe as a wave is continuous with the ocean.' Alan Watts

I believe that in a meaningless universe, the only meaning to be drawn from life is from positive interactions with other beings. In other words, be nice to people, and have as much fun as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To keep moving and keep meeting people.
