Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To discover cultures and open my eyes to all that the world has to offer.
ABOUT ME
Hello! I am passionate about many things, primarily the 1960s (the fashion, culture, politics, music, etc) and am President of the Leeds 1960s Society! I also produce and present a weekly radio show about 60s music, culture and history. I DJ in a couple of bars and clubs in Leeds, usually playing the best music of the 50s, 60s and 70s, from Rock n Roll to Psychedelic Rock and Proto-Punk.
I also love football, and support my local club, Watford FC. I have many diverse interests really, and I list some of them below!
PHILOSOPHY
I believe that it is not possible to understand the world, nor do we have a particular purpose here. All we can do is live pleasurably, help those in need whenever possible, and preserve the world for future generations.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I will offer my room when I possibly can - this will be easier for all when I move into my house this summer! I have never couchsurfed yet but I hope to shortly!
Interests
My other interests include drawing, politics, baking, fashion, writing poetry, creating music, drinking and dancing, travelling, exploring nature and expanding my mind.
