About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To visit new places, taste new food, make new friends, see new things
ABOUT ME
I am a Belfast native, i have lived in East Belfast all of my life. i really enjoy reading, traveling, socialising and finding out about other cultures
I really enjoy travelling and the new experiences I gain from it
sometimes i wish i was born hundreds of years ago, and i would have been an explorer or adventurer, just like Ibn Battuda, Marco Polo, Sir Richard Burton etc....
PHILOSOPHY
"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun" C.McCandless
Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
i used to live in australia, in a place called coffs harbour, i lived right on the beach, and each day after work i would swim in the sea, one time while swimming i saw a whale jump out of the water, it was quite a distance away, but just seeing it was something i'll never forget
