CURRENT MISSION

taking on the world, one mouthful at a time

ABOUT ME

This is a profile x2 for both my wife, Chris-Ann and myself - Shaun.

We are a couple of dreamers who quit our jobs, packed up our stuff and decided traveling with backpacks was far more exciting than existing behind cubicles. We love to eat - and love to share meals with new friends. We laugh till our sides hurt, will never say no to a glass of red wine, are blown away by amazing landscapes, bored by modern art, love to go on adventures - but resent walking up hill - believe in the power of positive thinking, karma and destiny - and that there are a few things in life more perfect than a well made sandwich.

PHILOSOPHY

The world is place filled with joy and adventure for those who seek it. Finding good people, starts with being a good person. Never be afraid to smile and say hello. Comfort zones are the only thing holding people back from greatness.
Your life is only as great as you dare to conceive it

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Brand new to the project - looking forward to hosting plenty of CSrs when we finally end our trip (so we can continue travelling through other people:) ). Hoping to have great CS experiences throughout Italy and Spain.
