Cycling. Art. Running. Road biking. Hiking. Swimming. Mountain biking. Triathlon. Camping. Good food. Bicycle touring. Good friends. Football. Cricket. Writing. Coffee. Reading. Urban exploration. Gigs. Hitch-hiking to far away places with a small backpack and an open heart. Photographs that record the journey. Quiet at first, but certainly not shy. Just enjoying life and learning without needing to shout about it. Silly sense of humour and a clown when I need to be. And did I mention I like bicycles...?

That's me in a list. I have hosted about 50 times in Scotland and cycled and couchsurfing my way across Europe. My mission? To meet interesting people, see beautiful places, and try as many new foods as possible!

**the response rate: N/A rating is cause I haven't hosted in 2 years or so due to not having a place for my guests in my flat! This will change as soon as I get a place I can host again. So please don't be put off sending me a request - I love hosting!

**PHILOSOPHY "You think adventure is dangerous? Try routine. It's lethal."

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Introduced to Couchsurfing by a crazy Swedish couchsurfing devotee, I'm converted. I surfed my way across Canada on an amazing cross-country journey, surfed my way across Europe as part of a 6000 km + bike journey, and have since hosted about 50 amazing people in Scotland. I've recently moved to Leeds and will be up and hosting as soon as I can be. :)

Lehren, lernen, teilen

So two CSers I hosted asked me if I could show them how to humanely catch squirrels.

Apparently, written in this section was "I can teach you to humanely catch squirrels".

I cannot remember for the life of me what I was talking about. However, if someone could teach ME how to humanely catch squirrels, I'd be very grateful. There is obviously a demand for such sort of knowledge...

As for what I can teach you... hmm. Football and a few card games perhaps? :)

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Food, wifi, knowledge about penguins, some card games...
