About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go with the flow, and love it! It's all about having fun, being impulsive and have the attitude of any day above ground is a good day :)

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty fun loving, I don't take anything to seriously and I'm always up for having some fun. I like to socialize with my mates it doesn't matter if we are staying in or going out.
I'm pretty active and like to keep my calendar full, so if you would like me to host you then it's best if you give me some notice, but you never know I might be able to help you out

I currently work in the NHS as a Hydrotherapy Assistant carrying out physiotherapy exercises with adults with severe profound learning difficulties, I've been doing this for over 10 years I really enjoy it.

I like to play football and I'm currently playing in Bristol (on the Downs) for a team called Lion FC. Bring your boots.... you might be able to play a game!

PHILOSOPHY

I just love being happy, doing things on a whim (when I have the money) I just living life with a smile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A good friend of mine and myself hitch-hiked to Glasgow for charity and we were told about couchsurfing, we stayed in his flat and he was a friendly and helpful host. This inspired me help and meet new people from all over the globe.
I've hosted a few couchsurfers now and showed them the sights of Bristol (Day and night) I'm really up for a laugh and pretty spontanious when it comes to trying new qwerky things or events. Bring it on Whooop whooop!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Me and my buddy Hitch-Hiked from Bristol to as far north as possible and managed to get 354miles north to Glasgow in 1 day.
We met a guy called Kenny who gave us a 3 hour lift to Glasgow and a bed for the night. This has inspired me to be generous and do the same for others in need. Plus I just want to have a luahg and meet some cool dudes and dudets!
I've hosted some guys from The Czech Republic and Switzerland now and really enjoy showing off my city. I love Bristol and really makes me proud when I can show my guests a good time in the city i've lived all my life in.

Interests

I love typical boy things I guess.... Football, Golf, Playing computer games with my mates. Love going out and having a few beers. Love to do random things!
I also do a lot of charity work for a group which I help start called LAD Prostate www.ladprostate.co.uk

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent over a month in Ghana in a small village called Akomodan. I worked along side local builders helping construct a school building.
I also done some teaching and helped cook traditional Ghanaian dishes.
My best part was laying on the West Coast beach when I was travelling home and learning to play my African drum with some Rastafarians.
