About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I live in an aquirium, travellers tell me of great expanses of water. Let me swim.

ABOUT ME

"I love Sudoku but whailing breaks my heart."

I have not seen enough of the world and I have not met enough of its people. It would be nice to go out and find out that you are all right.

PHILOSOPHY

"The scorpian is a sea spider trapped on land; the whale more so."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When people stay at our home I try to make them feel welcome: Pour them a drink, share a laugh and take them out to the beach.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I arrived home one eveing to find a man wearing leather pants, a leather vest, a top hat and a pile of necklacess. His apperance startled me and I was a little terrified. He turned out to be one of the most interesting people I have ever met. This was my first introduction to Couch Surfing. Since then I have meet a collection of interesting and amazing people and would like to meet more.

Interests

I love getting lost in live music and sharing this with people. Recently I have taken up the harmonica and wouldnt go a day without a howl. I am not great so would love if you could teach me a lick or two.
My life is in the city but many of my interests lie outside. If the surf is bad you will find me on a bike screaming through the woods.
