Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I used to squat in London. As it goes you offer rooms to people and Couchsurfing was a great way to meet them.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
String of lovely Aussies staying in our squat in Brixton (London).
I also stayed with Tera at Erwan's place in Paris. We arrived in Paris not knowing what was coming next. In a next few hours we had a lovely room, keys from a flat and three chilled-out French guys who supplied us with fun and table football.
Interests
Besides fixing my boat on the Thames I manage to go swimming twice a week and cycle a lot. I also used to play trumpet for seven years, but haven't touched it for good ten. I'm trying to get back to it. The same goes for climbing and table tennis. I like small summer festivals, gigs, raves and independent theatre plays but above all else I love Cornish coast on sunny summer day. Perranporth, Lizard's End, Polzeth, Tintagel are beautiful locations that stole my heart.
Equally as much as sea I like mountains and trekking in them. One of my dreams is to walk across Andes all the way from Colombia down to Patagonia in Argentina.
