About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the South Atlantic

ABOUT ME

I live in Stanley in the Falkland Islands with my partner John. The Falklands are incredibly beautiful. Come visit!

I'm an outdoors enthusiast. I love hiking, climbing, camping, exploring, kayaking, biking, wildlife spotting. My motto is to enjoy the journey as much as the destination. I tend to plan holidays around where I can hike. There is nothing better than sitting at the top of a mountain after hiking for days to get there. Little wonder my favourite travel destinations have been the Himalayas, the Andes, and the Canadian Rockies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Completed a 27-day solo hike in the Nepali Himalayas.

Teach, Learn, Share

Sharing a hot meal, a bottle of wine and a few good stories is the essence of what I think Couchsurfing is about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm that surfer who washes the dishes after dinner and restocks the beer in your fridge.
