I am an active outdoors person who loves world travel. I have spent much of the last 12 years balancing work and travel and love wilderness and meeting locals from different cultures and backgrounds.
Rosie, (my wife) and I have been active in Couchsurfing for about 8 years, but always hosting back in Scotland through my mother's profile as we shared a property with her. Meeting people and shared meals and experiences have been the greatest of pleasures and we hope to continue this now we are on the road!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people, share my home and hopefully the homes of others. It is a great community that has allowed us to gain world friendship as hosts and now we hope to continue this as travellers!

Interests

Outdoor adventures are truly my passion and I am fortunate enough to have joined this with my working life. Time off to travel allows me to read more, meet more people and explore more environments.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Friendly, happy, relaxed couple who are really excited to meet people and talk travel and adventures. We will also cook you dinner, and look forward to hosting you when our home is a little bigger than a tent!
