CURRENT MISSION

I do what I can, when I can.

ABOUT ME

I love humour - especially English humour - and sometimes miss having a good laugh while I'm away in Africa.

PHILOSOPHY

Simplicity. Honesty. Good Communication. I hate business and finance - and the growth mentality. I promote charity to those with too little and sharing to those with too much.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have plenty of couches at my city house in Africa where I am going from .
I do tell everyone about couch-surfing and most of them think it is a really wonderful idea.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had a few people to stay and have also stayed with a few - I'm really getting a taste for it now and just beginning to realise the possibilities it can open up.

兴趣

I love and appreciate art of any sort. But don't do any as such (unless life itself is seen as an art form - in which case I'm a master). I'm not at all musical or sporty I'm afraid.
The natural world is a great inspiration whereever I am in the world and a heap of good compost has been known to make me salivate.

音乐、电影和书籍

Music - usually anything live with some atmosphere with someone who is passionate about it. I still love The Stones and Rod Stuart - but don't actually buy any discs, etc these days. I prefer going to talks or lectures than concerts.
Charles Eisenstein's thinking resonates with me these days.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Giving birth to my 2 children.
Watching turtles come out of the ocean to lay their eggs on the beach on which they were born themselves maybe 50 years previously.

教，学，和分享

I have been in West Africa for a number of years now and am beginning to get an understanding of this very involved culture - although it's a bit like peeling an onion - just when you think you've got there, another layer unfolds. But that could be helpful to someone maybe.
Permcaulture, compost making, vegetable stew, chicken breeding.
