About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make the most of life

ABOUT ME

Over the last few years I've had limited ability to travel and thus I have spent a fairly long time away from the Couchsurfing site since my last experience. Luckily, I've been given the opportunity to explore a little more of the world. I am back on the road in South East Asia and looking to re-spark my couchsurfing days a little. Meet new people and learn more profoundly about the places I'm visiting.

PHILOSOPHY

Live for the moment

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately, I've never been able to host in my home town but it's something I would like to change in the near future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed twice, both times in Germany (Bremen + Frankfurt). They were both amazing experiences, the people I met were great and it added a whole new dimension to travelling, providing more personality to the cities involved. This was quite some time ago now though, sadly.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

not necessarily a positive thing but;
Whilst travelling around Indonesia, a friend in our group was in a head on collision on a motorbike, leading a series of events which concluded with the group being held hostage by the Indonesian Police. Definitely a once in a lifetime event.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not really sure what I could teach, there is some knowledge lying about in my head which others may appreciate who knows. More than willing to share it, be it the case and definitely up for learning all that is on offer, as is the main point of travelling, n'est ce pas?

What I Can Share with Hosts

I come from a background in writing, journalism, translation and marketing, so I am pretty good at writing copy for various purposes if your business needs support in some way?

Countries I’ve Visited

Andorra, Austria, Cambodia, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Indonesia, Latvia, Lithuania, Malaysia, Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, Spain, United Kingdom, United States, Viet Nam
