Hi, I’m David. I’ve spent the last few years up in the remote north east of Iceland, for the next few years I’m going to be going between Scotland in the summer and Iceland in the winter... and maybe some time in Europe.

I don’t have a couch for you to stay on in Scotland just now, got to build the cabin first, but if you’re up in northern Iceland I can find you somewhere to stay.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, I enjoy hearing other peoples stories, and sometimes I need a place to stay.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Kept my modesty

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess I’m supposed to say what you can learn from me?

Animal stuff, grazing and calving and making hay.
Welding and machining, making things with metal.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Humour and a hand knocking their house to bits and putting it back together again.
Or I can just bring in some good food to eat.
