I'm a friendly, easygoing but smart guy with what I would consider to be a typically British sense of humour. I enjoy a good long conversation about anything in particular.

Right now I'm trying to decide upon a new career and taking some time to enjoy myself in the meantime.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I tend to travel alone, but I like to meet people while I'm doing that. Couchsurfing is a great way of getting to know a place and its people.

兴趣

I enjoy performing improvised comedy. I'm also quite musical: I play the trombone and I'm learning the guitar. I have a PhD in maths, and I used to work in software.
