CURRENT MISSION

Smile and laugh my way to India by bicycle

ABOUT ME

Take a bowl. Add a big smile, blue eyes, & a shock of blonde hair. Combine with a huge zest for life, a fun loving nature & an athletic body, before sprinkling with laughter. Garnish with a pair of trainers. Put in the countryside & leave to simmer for a day and you will have your very own Papa Noel - enjoy with a cold drink by an open fire.

PHILOSOPHY

When the 'power of love' overcomes the 'love of power' I will be the wise guy in the corner with a wry grin on my face knowing that the world knows peace.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Smile and the world smiles right back at you. Love and the world loves you.

Happiness is like Jam - when you spread enough of it you can't help getting a little on yourself.

One heart, one love, let's get together and feel alright.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I once slept on a 1965 velvet underground 3 seater. It had a moth hole in the top right hand corner joined to a paper towel draped over the back by a musty cobweb. The best thing about this sofa was that down the side I found 33p and was able to buy myself a packet of crisps and a curly wurly.

Interests

Life, the universe and everything.

Hanging my face out of a bus and feeling the wind against my skin, singing to passers by, art in the sand, sliding down waterslides in the nude, forgetting the last line of jokes. Feeling the power of the ocean and being humbled by a mountain range.

Laughing at my mistakes and smiling at my conquests. Experiencing life and learning. Loving love, hating hate. Fancy dress.

Eating with my hands and drinking a beer after a long ride on my bike. Being hypnotised by music and ripping up a dance floor.

Most importantly being me!! Always.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is the essence of life. From Beatbox to Bach, Jerry Lee Lewis to Jazz, Punk to Funk, La Roux to The Who. Throw my in a mosh pit, wobble me on a dance floor or seat me round a camp fire with my Ukulele and I'm a happy man.

Books: Rohinton Minstry, Irvine Welsh - authors who use some local lingo and experience to write fiction.

People tell me off for my lack of film knowledge (come and visit, bring your favourite movie and educate me)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I fell off a sheer cliff on my bike and survived - I'm on my second life and making the most of it.

I once saw a guy wearing a blue fluffy dressing gown with white clouds on it carrying an AK47.

Guinness book of records, world champion

Teach, Learn, Share

Do you think if I was to tow a couch behind my bicycle with some shelter from the rain people would come and stay.

You could even take the night bike - waking in the morning, looking past the licra clad bottom and see a whole new world to explore.
