About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living out of a backpack, exploring the big wide world, one city at a time. Currently in Europe for the summer.

ABOUT ME

Currently traveling around the world with my girlfriend - hoping to establish a semi permanent nomadic existence. Super excited to see as much of the world as we can and connect with awesome people along the way!

I am a very easy going guy - I love conversation and getting to know people. I am adventurous and will try anything once. Life is too short to regret things that you don't do!

My passions include music, scuba diving, fitness, reading, cooking, great conversation and sharing ideas.

I am interested in spending time with people that can help me get to know their cities and countries at a deeper level - not just all the usual tourist stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to worry. Enjoy the present moment. Be kind to one another.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd love to be hosted while traveling around the world, after hosting people in Dubai for the past 3 years myself.

If you can't host me, Id also appreciate some of your time to be able to get to know you and your city through your eyes - one cant really get to know a place without knowing its people!

Interests

Outdoors, diving, fitness, watching football, playing pool/snooker, having great conversations, laughing and thinking.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books - anything on travel, economics, philosophy and anything that is special, different and worth a read.
Music - I love the blues, jazz, rock, metal and anything else made with a bit of talent.
Movies - comedies and thrillers

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dived on a WW2 shipwreck in Egypt.

Run a 165km, six day, self sufficient race through the desert of Oman.

Teach, Learn, Share

Everybody has something to teach and everybody has something to learn.

But it’s hard to be the person you want to be if your days leave no room for contemplating who that person even is.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Travel stories, kindness and genuine interest. Great conversation and a good laugh!

I am also happy to help with cooking, cleaning, pet sitting and anything else you can use a hand with!
