ABOUT ME
I love travel and love it more on a motor bike usually solo and I hate planning my travels (sleeping in parks due to getting to towns, like Barcelona at all hallows eve, that are booked out, happens only a few times and it fun any way)
PHILOSOPHY
and now for something completely different
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Hosted for a few years now on the road to meet all the cool hosts out there
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted some amazing people and have started surfing myself, but the way I travel it is hard to CS with people as I am a very last minute planner, as I don't know where I'll be at the end of the day, usually making decisions on route and not making the destination due to finding a random place on the route so sorry if it is a last minute request :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hiking solo on the Camino de Santiago passing through the Pyrenees in mid winter only seeing snow for the first time, a week before, and being belly button deep in snow with no idea if this is a good idea or not. Got to chest deep with clouds closing in and Black Sabbath's song Snowblind in my head. Ended up in a French family's home who don't speak English and me no French and getting a 4 course meal port and wine and an comfortable bed and this was the first day of a month long hike love it!
everytime I travel something goes horribly wrong and some thing awesome results, love it!
Teach, Learn, Share
Random stuff?! I've done permaculture, a bit of sailing bush mechanics so anything I can help with I'll try might be able to help with something, who knows just ask
trying to learn Spanish and the guitar and the harmonica but I have a short attention span which makes it hard
