Life should be enjoyed & opportunities should be grasped.

I love to travel and meet people. Over the last 10 years I have been working in the outdoor industry teaching and guiding a variety of outdoor sports. In between instructing I have traveled, this has allowed me to explore, experience, encounter different cultures, environments, people and has developed my senses and the person I am. Freedom & friendships are important to me.

I have a calm personality and enjoy spending most of my time outside. I like to be happy and make others happy!

"I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in" ............... a quote by John Muir (a Scottish-American naturalist, author, environmental philosopher and early advocate of preservation of wilderness in the United States.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet new people and have found through couch surfing not only is it a fantastic way to get to know the local area but also make some brilliant new friends. When I'm home I like to repay the hospitality others have shown me and host in my native country of Wales.

Interests

Most of my hobbies involve spending time in outdoor environments. I also like to bake bread and have been trying to learn a consistent method for a perfect traditional pizza dough!
