CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm a 23 year old theatre technician from the south east coast of england with a love for tattoos, punk rock music, and theatre. i play the guitar and like to spend my free time going for walks and generally being out and about! im very heavily tattooed which obviously makes people a bit weary of me but in this day and age i believe we should judge people by behaviour, not appearence!

PHILOSOPHY

"if theres nothing you can do about it, worrying only makes it worse."

"its all about behaviour not appearence."

"it's not your roots, its your attitude to life and others so drop the act."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i think couch surfing is a fantastic idea, not only as a means of cheap accomodation but as a way of networking without wires. people spend alot of their time networking via the internetand although relationships are formed across great distances i believe travelling those distances creates a much stronger bond and could ultimately lead to a safer and more trusting world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i spent the last 4 years staying with friends and relatives on sofas due to having no place of my own at the time and i am eternally greatfull to everyone who put me up. escpecially you Ed! your beanbag is a gift from god my friend!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

watching the sun come up as i walked 16 miles along the coast from brighton to seaford starting at 3am and finishing at 9am just because i felt like it. was amazing to see the tip of the sun cresting over the horizon with not a soul around.

Teach, Learn, Share

due to working backstage at a theatre i have reasonably good technical knowledge. im a useful handy man as i can fix and build to a good standard. i also play the guitar amongst other instruments and am always willing to share musical knowledge. (also i know some fun party tricks and knots hohoho)
