About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To eventually move my life overseas!

ABOUT ME

Hi I'm Tim! I'm currently working as a music programmer, while I dream of where I'm going to travel next. In my spare time I play in a punk band called Bachelor Pad. I also spend large amounts of time listening to music, conversing over beers and occasionally I pull out dance moves that haven't been seen since my dad hit the dancefloors in the 1970's.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started by couchsurfing for 4 months around Europe in 2008. Came back, hosted quite a few people, and continued surfing and hosting since.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have made numerous friends from all around the world, many who I have both surfed with and hosted!

I have also ended up in many great/strange experiences which never would have happened without couchsurfing
