About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit as many Major Cities of the world that I can before I hit 30!!

ABOUT ME

I'm friendly, energetic and always up for a laugh! But i'm also respectful of other people and their belongings, and I'm hoping 2009 will be as good as 2008 which was the best year of my life thanks to my travels and all the amazing people I met on the way...

PHILOSOPHY

I love a challenge, I recently did the 132m Nevis Bungee in Queenstown, NZ which literally took my breath away! I believe success is more enjoyable if you work hard for it, and single-mindedness is a strength, not a weakness!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A couch is all I need, but in return I promise to tell you all about myself and where I'm from, and be respectful of the host and their home!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is all new to me, but its been highly recommended by so many people that I now really want to experience it for myself! I like the fact that through this project, you actually meet the real natives of the individual country you are travelling in.

Interests

I love Sport in general, but especially Football (or Soccer!), Tennis and Skiing!! I enjoy reading books and watching films, but really should do it more often! However, Socialising and meeting new, likeminded people is an interest that I will hopefully never lose! Now i really want to do a skydive!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Recently read Sleepers, and was so engrossed I bought the DVD the next day which was almost as good. I love a bit of Hip Hop and R N'B on a night out to get me in the party mood, but any film or book that discusses people's thoughts and behaviour interests me. I've never been a fan of science fiction, sorry!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently did the 132m high Nevis Bungee in Queenstown, NZ. It was pretty terrifying, and I'll never forget the helpnessness I felt when I was stood on the edge! However the jump literally took my breath away and It was something I'll always be glad I did. I enjoyed it much more that I ever thought I would!!

Teach, Learn, Share

If i have any special skills that people want to learn I'm more than happy to teach! I'm a good talker and listener!!

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, China, Fiji, New Zealand, Thailand

Countries I’ve Lived In
