I was born, and grew up in Christchurch, New Zealand. I am an English teacher and I have taught English in the UK, Ireland, Czech, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Iraq. I have just finished teaching summer schools in the UK and Czech and am now seeking a new contract in the Middle East or Asia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend told me about Couchsurfing and I thought it would be a good way to meet new people whilst traveling. Also, meet local people with local knowledge (both local citizens and local expats), learn about different cultures/countries and make new friends.

Have a nice day.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a broad eclectic tastein music. I worked on musical stage shows whilst I was at Uni and for a fewyears after. I like musicals, some opera, classical, jazz, rock, pop, hard rock, heavy metal, dance music and more...

I am a DJ (when I get time and have an appropriate space - I mix house and trance music (mostly).

I started carrying a transistor radio with me everywhere I went from the age of 4 and music continues to dominate my interests today.
