ABOUT ME

Avid traveller that loves to meet new people and visit new places. A dream of mine is to, at the end of my life, be able to say that I've lived on each of the continents (3 down so far!)

Love reading (if it's in a language I understand, I read it!), blues (or any good guitar music), learning, whisky (Scottish single malts), soccer (Manchester United fan) and motorcycles (vintage, cafe racer, etc).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Although I'm a backpacker by heart (and was in the past), I've turned into a business traveller by profession. That said, I do normally try to add a couple of days on to my business trips and do some couchsurfing to get to know local people and travel down the less travelled routes.
