Overview
About Me
If you're gonna send a request for me to host you then include a sentence about a wrestler or a comic book character so I know you read this :P
I'm a big old geek who enjoys bad puns far too much. hate these things I never know what to say so I asked a couple friends to sum me up in a sentence,
Sian said "A big lovable bear that is perfect for hugs, and also the guy that you reeeaaalllyy want to have on your side in a fight."
Josie: "Babbling Nerdy Guy"
Mel, my sister: "Jesus. Very difficult. You are a complex person big bro! Defo something about music and science-fiction loving geek. Haha sorry if that is not flattering enough"
I live with an over 6 foot tall sasquatch named neil he plays guitar, smokes weed and likes wrestling and horror movies and is muscled and stuff. He's quite an easy going fella.
I like music. A lot. My favourite band is Motörhead. I've got far too much to say on the subject to fit here.
I like comics books, I really like comic books, but not in a lame-elitist-devoted-to-nothing-but-superheroes-keep-comic-in-little-plastic-cases-and-they-never-get-read way. I love the variety of comic books I'm fascinated by everything about them! Currently reading book two of Lucifer.
I like wrestling too, yes it's fake, yes i still love it. Especially reading about what goes into putting on a show the backstage stuff, the history of the business, wrestler's lives etc. etc.
I'm a vegetarian.
There is obviously more to me but again my mind has gone blank as i hate these about me sections.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My former flatmates are on here and I got to meet some really awesome people through them hosting people.
Being able to show people around Glasgow makes me see things I've never noticed or see things in a different light.
I love meeting people from different situations and cultures, anything to expand horizons.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I used to be a gig promoter in Perth and semi regularly put on Rock/Metal gigs on. The amazing thing is I only ever lost money on one gig.

What I Can Share with Hosts
