ABOUT ME

I love the outdoors. Mountain biking, climbing, walking, etc... I think these are the best ways to experience nature and stunning landscapes. I'm lucky enough to live in England's Peak District so have plenty of good mountain biking on my doorstep. It is my ambition to ride/climb/walk/run/ in the worlds natural and beautiful wild places.

PHILOSOPHY

Live simply. Treat others how you would like to be treated. I love to learn new things and enjoy teaching others. Have fun and laugh!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to be able to meet like minded people who are able to show me the hidden gems of the areas in which they live. There is nothing like a locals knowledge, particularly when it comes to the best areas to ride/climb/hike, etc!

I would also like to be able to provide my couch to travelers wishing to see the Peak District, or see what Manchester has to offer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed through Switzerland. I saw more of Switzerland than most Swiss people have!

Interests

Mountain biking and cycling in general are my main thing.

Cooking, food eating, drinking beer in the evening, drinking tea in the morning, long summer days, dark winter evenings.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you how to build a camp fire and light it without matches, last part not guaranteed ;-)

I enjoy learning languages, and teaching English. I have spent time living in Spain and can speak reasonable Spanish.
