About Me

I live in Barcombe in Sussex. I like a board game but I can on occasion be persuaded to talk about something else.
If you're requesting to stay with me, put your email address in the request because I haven't paid my subscription and I won't be able to reply to you otherwise.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

If you've found this page because you're one of my pupils - Hi! So nice of you to show an interest in me! Now go and do your homework.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed in France and Belgium, hosted a bunch in London and surfed some more in New England and Eastern Canada. It's all been pretty cool so far.
Update 09 - I've now also surfed in Austria, Turkey, Jordan, Egypt and Cyprus. That was all pretty cool too. Update 18 - I've mostly had a bunch of couchsurfers stay with me in Barcombe. Universally good experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I won a teapot with my anagram skills

Teach, Learn, Share

I like teaching things to children but I reckon most adults know all the stuff they need to know by now. I can teach the rules to complicated board games though, if they don't know them.

I don't need to learn anything because I'm an adult. Except there are some board games I don't know the rules to, so I could learn them.

France, Mexico, Turkey, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, Romania, Sri Lanka, United Kingdom
