CURRENT MISSION

To climb things, and cycle places...

ABOUT ME

I love Bikes, Bicycles and Cycles. I teach adults to ride, and I race at weekends...
I studied and graduated with a Physical Geography BSc degree, in Canterbury, Kent. I spent my second year as an exchange student in Canada.
Live music, going out with friends and drinking tea literally makes the world go round. My life long ambition is to become a Weatherman... I haven't decided why though.
I stumbled into couch Surfing whilst out with some friends in a bar in Southern Alberta. I guess I'd never enjoyed the hostel scenes, it seemed people were only in hostels to save money, and generally not of the exploring nature.
I love exploring, and attempt to plan as little as possible.
Since graduation I worked for a year in a job that I didn't enjoy, and finally decided to pack it all in, and hit the roads again. I've now been working for the environment agency for a year, and absolutely love it!
I'm a qualified British Cycling Level 2 ride leader (I teach adults to be confident of the road) and I absolutely love it... it's entirely voluntary, but I still adore doing it.

PHILOSOPHY

I ride bikes, I love bikes, I live bikes...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been part of CS for a few years, both hosting and surfing during this time... I've explored Europe and North America in this time. I've had some amazing times! I'm looking forward to meeting new people, and having some fun in the near distant future!

Music, Movies, and Books

The bands that spend their time in my headphones consist of; Kings of Leon, We are Scientists, The Cribs, etc... I recently found a compilation CD from when I grow up with the likes of Wheatus and Nickleback, which I'm loving at the minute.
I enjoy books written by Nick Hornby... and am currently slogging my way through Lord of the Rings.
