CURRENT MISSION

To live, love and laugh and never regret a thing

ABOUT ME

I am a straight up, down to earth, chilled out guy who truely believes the best things in life are just experiencing the world and its many different cultures and meeting new people, so this couch surfing idea is right up my street!!!
I am very friendly open and honest, and love just having fun and experiencing different things!!

PHILOSOPHY

Right to be brief I'll sum this up in few short quotes i love, otherwise i could be here all day ha ha ha

"Only when we are no longer afraid, do we begin to live"
"Be the change you want to see in the world" Gandhi
"If you can feel in your mind that everything is beautiful, then everything outside of that is beautiful too" Lawrence
"Many little things done by many little people, will change the face of the world"

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in a beautiful seaside town in the north of england with a spare room, and living room with 2 couches Which any other honest, chilled out people are welcome to!! Saltburn is the best town in the north east of england (personnal opinion but its true!!!) a great place to stay near Middlesbrough and within an hours drive to Newcastle, Leeds, Whitby, York and the yorkshire moors amongst others!
I love to travel and meet new people in different countries so to share their experiences of different cultures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have travelled and couchsurfed a fair bit as well as hosting a fair few people and had many amazing experiences around the world and met some fantastic people. I really believe all the best trips anywhere are better when you know someone there who can show you around and party with!!!

Centres d'intérêt

Main passion is music, going to gigs, festivals and anywhere i can dance generally to great tunes!!
Also very much into world affairs, politics and social justice/Human rights issues. Basically in my relatively insignificant life i wanna do whatever small things i can to make the world a slightly better place!!
I love to read as well particularly stuff to help me learn about the world, different cultures and international relations etc
And of course travelling and adventuring about be it wandering around my local area on the beach or exploring the woods/moors or travelling to new places in the country or across the world!!
