About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy as much of life as I can get hold of.

ABOUT ME

Hi there, thanks for looking over my profile, I'm new to Couch Surfing, been on a few outings while working in Oslo. The idea seems to work really well and I'm impressed with how the system works, plus the people I've been lucky enough to meet, have all been interesting both to spend time with while on adventures or to spend a few hours chatting to while having a few beers in bar. As you may have worked out I enjoy meeting new people and like to think I take people at face value. I'm more then happy to take part in almost anything with my only condition being that it has to be fun and every one enjoys the event.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let Live... treat every onewith respect and never assume you know more then those around you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment as I said I'm brand new to the hold idea of Surfing while sitting on the couch, so at the moment I'm learning the ropes. My reason for joining is very simple, I spend a lot of time working away from my home in England. While I've very lucky to have my hotels bills paid, I seem to miss out seeing anything of the local area I happen to be in... Couch Surfing seem to be a perfect way to both meet new people and see new cities and towns which I would if I tell truth would not have the chance to see.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been on a 9km night walk while in Oslo un late Sept, and a monthly meeting also while in Oslo.

Interests

Well travelling for a start. These days I seem to spend more time away then at home then there. I'm keen on building things around my home in England. I would really like to get out to do some more sailing which feels like a life time ago now... but really would love to get back out on the water again..
