CURRENT MISSION

The ongoing struggle to speak better German than my girlfriend!

ABOUT ME

It's a hard-knock life for sure. Been travelling and working my way round various nooks and crannies of the globe for more than 10 years now, and haven't found a good excuse to stop yet.

Apart from hatching various evil plans at world domination, i'm a fairly laid back and easy going type........bordering on simple and clumsy; but generally get on with most people, and try not to take myself too seriously.

PHILOSOPHY

Leave no couch left unturned for lost change, pens, keys, half ripe chewing gum and hidden couchsurfers

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Been on the road a fair while, and just really love meeting new people, hearing their stories.... long may it continue.

Best memories of a country always revolve around the people you meet; so much so i can't really imagine people travelling without c'surfing these days.

I've tried to reciprocate all that hospitality, but having 2 hosts in 3 and half years is a poor showing by any standard.....need to learn to cook something better than beans on toast i guess.

Interests

Pretty wide open area really.....dwarfs, the number 6, witch hunts, burnings at the stake....

Nah, i`d say i like mainly creative stuff, whether it's graphic design, photography, art, music, fashion, films etc.

Gotta throw in the usual suspects of sports, anything outdoors, anything indoors, cuisine and a good ol' fashioned party.

Mmm, also anything chuck norris orientated, talking in a annoying cockney / geordie accent, a sad old man interest in real ales and belgian booze, paying for terrible haircuts, drunken karaoke, and somehow i've wound up with an odd collection of hats, caps and helmets from my travels, so i spose i'm now a collector.
