About Me

I've been a gymnastics coach for the past ten years and for two of those I ran my own club. With more experience I started to teach more competitive gymnasts and became a sports conditioning coach for other sports including high board diving.
Along side this I've been training to be a stuntman. This is a passion for me. I'm very close to the end of my training now, it's more than you might think!
I've always travelled when I could, and worked when I couldn't. I'm lucky to say I enjoy life and get to experience a lot of it.

I'm fairly new to couch surfing and a little inexperienced so bear with me! I'm trying to learn to plan ahead better, but the trip that I am on is not definite when or where I will be so unfortunately it maybe a lot of last minute requests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sometimes hostels are so cheap and sometimes easier, but my favourite times whilst travelling are meeting the locals and couch surfing is the best way to do it. Simply, I enjoy it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Rescued by helicopter from a mountain

Teach, Learn, Share

I tend to be a jack of all trades master of none. I'm a gymnastics coach for a living however, so I could probably teach you some gym! I also like to cook.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hopefully some good company. It's not necessary as I am quite self sufficient, but I like to chat and share experiences, views and thoughts. I can cook a few meals quite well too.
