ABOUT ME

It's never easy to talk about yourself. I get a massive kick out of seeing people smile. I've got a million and one stories to share all with the aim to make someone smile. I'd like to meet new people to hear their stories and adventures, who know's maybe even to have some adventures with too.

PHILOSOPHY

How do you live your life?Here is a list of quotes that i've come across and my philosophy is a mix of all of these....Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for." -Bob Marley"The world is a book and those who don't travel read only a page" -St. Augustine"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." — Marilyn Monroe... "will u be strong enough to be honest and trustful for me even when someone like me would fall in love with you and try to build a life with you?" Essi 2010""Hurry up Living or hurry up dieing""Babies like to breathe, and they're good at hiding it. I put a pillow over a baby. I thought she wasn't breathing, but she was. She was sneaky, but I'll try again"(Away we go, 2009)"'Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways -glass of Bordeaux in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming,'WOO HOO, What a Ride!'"'The day the child realizes all adult are imperfect, they become an adolescent; the day they forgive them, they become an adultAlden Nowlan"So I've spent every day since then chasing Amy... So to speak."“I really wish we hadn’t started here, it’s too easy to get the wrong idea about me.”(Hero wanted, 2007)Only three things should matter to you: your religion, your family and the Green Bay Packers. In that order (Lombardi)" I have a poster of you on my wall- but you are wayyyyy hotter in person!""The mind is its own place, and in itself, can make heaven of Hell, and a hell of Heaven." John Milton

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've Hosted via my parents due to a mix up with me being out of the country and I'm proud to say it my parents loved it. They have now gone onto set up their own accounts and love to show people around Stonehenge, which thanks to the wallpaper on windows 95 people flock to stay with them.I used to live with someone who travelled the world via CS and we both Hosted people, that's how i got into the world of CS. Since ive been in Helsinki i've been to the "meet ups" and they've been fantastic. I've like to surf but haven't yet, maybe you could be my first? haha.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I lived with a very active sofa surfer and i would now like to try it for myself.

Interests

I've always been active and my lastest hobby is rock climbing. I'm not very good but it still gives me a great sense of freedom, which is funny as you're tied up and connected most of the time.
Really I enjoy things that will put a smile on my face, weather it's food and drink, travel and love, books or skydiving. I'd be happy being happy.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a school teacher by trade and that gives me the skill to try and teach. I guess it's down to the pupil. I'm lucky that i get taught more than i teach.
