About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning the banjo so I can sit and play it all day on my porch (Came here to update but this is once again the mission so it stays)

ABOUT ME

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed 5-6 times while I was in Europe for two months some years ago and loved it. Have hosted on a few occasions and enjoy being a tourist in my own town.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed a lot of times now :D
Have absolutely loved it, lovely, generous people and to me it feels like getting the chance to look through a window at how other people live. It's incredible.
Have had a few people stay - through my mums cs'ing profile - and have met up with one or two travellers around town. Today at work I gave a Polish tourist free food - this is couchsurfing spirit right? Aha

Interests

MUSIC - I love playing guitar, recently bought a banjo and I like to sing. I also put in some solid listening hours! Have been on tour up the East Coast of Australia with friends and have one song recorded after 15 years playing.. You can listen to my band 'Remember the Circus' on any good music platform.
Football - Have played since I was 5 - Avid Liverpool fan
Travelling - Always wanting to have some adventures!
