Happiest when challenging life rather than waiting for it to happen. Inevitably a few mishaps with this approach, but my greatest fear is that I'll run out of time before I can see and do all! A hundred ideas at any one time. irrepressible when excited, irreverent sense of humor, love anything/one genuinely good, or even a little bad or mad!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Seems a fantastic way to find the heart and soul of places not yet discovered, and share time/stories and the joy of somewhere new with another enthusiast, be it home or away.

Interests

Anything and most things with a tale to tell, or that I haven't yet tried!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Any genre of music that tickles my emotions in some way.

Movies - Any subtle, humorous/emotional study of human character, e.g., The Sea Inside, Doctor Strangelove, The Intouchables.

Books - An epic tale of life in the past with lots of factual morsels to nibble on.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Surviving 3 days on the back seat of my Morris Minor car with my toes in the water in a flood on New Zealand's South Island with a packet of cornflakes, powdered milk and my only book ' The deliverance' - Scary!

What I Can Share with Hosts

My enthusiasm/curiosity and easy company I hope
