CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Englishman in Vienna. Been here for a over twelve years and the city is my home. I have travelled extensively within Europe and have started to explore more remote corners of the globe.

PHILOSOPHY

Work to live, don't live to work!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am active when travelling myself, but very inactive between journeys. I like to help others I meet on the road, but struggle to be able to help out so much when I am in Vienna due to demands on my time with work, and frequent short trips away.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met up with a lot of CSers on the road through SE Europe in Summer 2008, as well as while in the Baltics. Had fun nights out in Serbia, Macedonia and Lithuania with local CSers and hosted traveller from Czech Republic.
