ABOUT ME

If brevity is the soul of wit, then I've been told that I make for a convincing halfwit. Currently wandering the world by way of its coastlines from one tropical paradise to another, all the while trying to make something close to a living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Erm, with an open mind and well honed sense of tact and decorum?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted by some wonderful people on my way from Austin, TX to San Fran, CA in autumn 2012.

Repaying the favour with the occasional hosting on Tobacco Caye!

Interests
