Hello

I'm an English born dual-national. I spent most of my life in London (UK)

For me, embracing adventure is the most important thing about life. I want to experience everything, meet everyone and sample all the world has to offer.

I'm 34 years old and have decided that travel is what I want to be doing for the foreseeable future.

I'm curretly travelling the US with my partner and lifetime travel companion, Randi. https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/ahoy808

We want to see everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people and experience the world through the stories and friendships that are created from being face to face. Hotels can be sterile, lifeless experiences that I would rather avoid.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a great passion for music. I was lucky enough to grow up in a house filled with it. What I listen to really depends on where I am at that time. I love old soul, country, metal, rock, classical, opera, bluegrass, punk... Live shows are often my happy place.

My two favourite movies are Fear and Loathing and Lost in Translation.

some of my favourite authors are Kerouac, Bukowski, Thompson, Fante, Abbey, Hemingway, Sartre and many more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Helped to build a children's centre in rural Uganda and become a charity ambassador.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a qualified English language teacher so I'll happily exchange some lessons for a roof over my head for a night.

I always want to learn about the history and culture of the places I visit

I will always share my food with anyone who asks

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a good cook and am always happy to cook meals for people.

I like to tell stories, and I can teach you how to make fire.
