CURRENT MISSION

influence for good

ABOUT ME

I'm social, experientially intrigued, widely traveled and have had a varied career. I was formerly a DJ/club promoter while doing a degree in genetic engineering. After that I studied theology and philosophy and then got involved in areas of justice (started an anti-human trafficking agency - www.thetruthisntsexy.org). Don't let this put you off though, I simply studied a load of stuff that gave the opposite impression of what I'm really like! Deep down, I'm a laid back idiot.

2010 saw me take off to Kazakhstan, Mongolia and Siberia on my motorbike and then a return to there to learn Russian.

Head to Chamonix through Winter for skiing.

Now work in business development. Also, for the fun, work as a chef at Mourne Seafood's Belfast Cookery School.

PHILOSOPHY

attempt to live with a posture of generosity to others and recognise that the less I pack, the more awaits me...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host and on the odd occasion, surf if travelling. Love the world coming to me, even when I'm locked down at the office.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far so great.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ridden my motorbike to Mongolia and Siberia and back

Teach, Learn, Share

I could take you climbing or surfing on a nearby beach but not sure there's much to be learned in an hour or two. Pillion ride on my motorbike around the north coast road. Some yoga? Ultimately, not sure i can teach much, but i'm happy to learn if you're up for doing the teaching!!!
