ABOUT ME

Now that my children are older, I've got time to explore hobbies, interests and curious people. I'm finally able to travel and visit places that have long been on my list.

If you like real ale, comedy, sightseeing, people, food, cooking, movies, culture, architecture, debate or travel then it'd be fun to have you visit!

PHILOSOPHY

Live, love, look, be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Connecting with people who extract every ounce of energy from life encourages me to pursue activity with passion and enthusiasm.. Life is really short. I don't want my epitaph to be 'didn't do much and was mostly bored'.

I've hosted a few people, and I've stayed a few places now, and over the years I've had people stay, or live with me for a while. When you sharing space with people you get to know them and yourself.

Interests

I play musical instruments, sing in a choir. I prefer to chat than play sport
I like Rugby, Tennis, F1.
