About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Too see the world at a steady pace, No need to rush ;)

ABOUT ME

I'm easy going and i'm always up for a laugh,
I will try anything at least once, I'm very adventurous, like to go trekking and will go anywhere that is different and mainly off the beaten track. away from the tourist crowds!!!
I love to eat at local cafes and will try anything, I avoid the likes of McDonalds, Burger King, Starbucks etc, I don't even go to the ones in the UK, as this to me is not experiencing where you are, you have to embrace the country you are in and "Live like a Local"

PHILOSOPHY

Work to Live, Not Live to Work!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I need to use Couchsurfing much more, but i'm maybe a little too spontenious ;)
So maybe I will use it more this year, as I'm just on the start of a 7 month trip and plan to explore even more, would love some like minded people to join me ;)

I was hosted by a couch surfer in Egypt several years ago, that was organised by a Danish friend, we had a great time travelling through the Middle East,

Interests

I'm Very Easy going and am willing to try anything once,

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many to list :O
For example:- Bungee Jumped (or should I say pushed!!) off the Victoria falls/Zambezi Bridge in Zambia, white water rafted down the Zambezi, done a helicopter flight down into the valley gauge skimming over the river Zambezi, that was fantastic!!
I've been to see the Mountain Gorilla's twice, both in Uganda and Rwanda, amazing things to see up close!!
Done over 14 safaris in Africa,
Spent most of 2012 in the Philippines, this place is amazing, a Lovely country with nice warm people & its cheap!!
I've been to many more places, but the world is such a huge place and I wanna see and experience more, I'm done with living in the UK!!
