About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet good folks and explore with my rather wonderful girlfriend!

ABOUT ME

I try to be as kind and considerate as I can, I think that generosity is one of the finest things in life. I like meeting new people, sharing ideas and broadening my mind as best I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Love reciprocally, share, live for others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Keen to get hosting as soon as possible, then later hope to explore the UK and perhaps further afield, time and money permitting, with my girlfriend

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been great so far - hosted and met some lovely people from around the world

Interests

I absolutely love cooking, I'm an avid reader, I also like to potter around on the guitar.
I've always enjoyed camping, fishing, generally being outdoors amongst the mountains in my native North Wales.
Languages fascinate me and I jump at any opportunity to learn a few words and phrases here and there.

Music, Movies, and Books

A little obsessed with The Tallest Man on Earth at the moment. But I'll listen to anything - Tom Waits is my ultimate musical hero. I'm a huge hip-hop fan, as well as Reggae, Soul, whatever really. Studying English Literature doesn't leave much time for personal reading, but I've always loved Raymond Chandler, Graham Greene, Orwell, Bukowski and the classics... I truly love reading.
Film wise again, I'll watch anything - enjoying French cinema at the moment - La Haine, Les Intouchables, Le Samourai - good for improving my French. Otherwise, The Godfather, The Departed, City of God, Fight Club - anything good!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Stepping out of Mumbai international airport and into Indian chaos - getting lost, ill, sad, scared and picking myself back up.
-Listening to Rain Dogs for the first time.
-Meeting incredible people at every opportunity.

Teach, Learn, Share

My French is at quite a good level, and I speak Welsh fluently so some home made lessons could be on the cards. Also I can play the guitar and would be happy to depart some knowledge, as I would with regards to cooking and making nice food.

Countries I’ve Visited

India, Indonesia, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

France, United Kingdom
