CURRENT MISSION

To experience new experiences

ABOUT ME

Wow, that´s scary. I´m on facebook but I´ve got mixed feelings about it, I like experiencing other people´s lives but don´t assume that my every move will be of interest to others. I´ve wanted to travel the world for years and having started I´ve learnt that six months is nowhere near enough. I like people but also my own space, I like wine but it doesn´t always like me. I like to cook and I love to eat.

PHILOSOPHY

If everybody read a few more books the world would be a better place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I debated it for a long while, finally took the plunge in Uruguay in Nov 2011 and loved it!

Interests

I tried to think of things that don't interest me but really I'd like to experience a little bit of nearly everything...except snooker which I think is really very dull!
