Overview
About Me
Honestly all of the information here is from almost 10 years ago... I've mellowed down quite a lot now but I'm not bothered to go through and change everything... So here below you can see how much of an idiot I was at 18 :D
Some things never change though...
Laid back, open to anything and not wanting to be bored!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because no matter where you are in the world, you get hostels. And don't get me wrong they're great, but they're not the way to truly experience a city :)

- dining
- beer

Music, Movies, and Books
My calling in music is jazz drumming, but I'm into and have played a wide variety of music such as rock, funk, reggae, classical, 60's and 70's pop, alternative, and pretty much anything else so long as it's good :)
I read voraciously when I was younger but haven't had so much time to as I've got older. I still love books though, and have read or at least heard of most books anyone brings up.
Some of my favourite books include:
LOTR and all things Tolkien :)
Harry Potter
His Dark Materials Trilogy
Terry Pratchett RIP :(
Richard Dawkins' The selfish gene
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Quadbiking through the Namib desert was awesome :)
Teach, Learn, Share
Neuroscience, AI, machine learning,

I can share stories and all the interesting things I know, and will likely liven your life up for a little bit :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
Great company and conversation. A bit of spontaneity and freshness, I'm up for anything new and interesting! You want a partner in crime for something crazy, I'm your guy :)
