ABOUT ME

In the spare time i get i'm usually singing, playing guitar, writing, drinking and being merry, learning from others, imparting my wisdom and generally trying to better myself or my surroundings.

At the minute i am taking a gap year..or two..in my music degree at newcastle college/university. i'm hoping to write and record my own work mostly this lifetime and travel when possible to open the mind. hopefully after a lot of hard work some good music will follow.

PHILOSOPHY

live and learn.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed for the First time in Jan '09' when i tripped to Barcelona and it was excellent. Last year i hitchhiked from Gdansk,Poland down to Budapest and back to newcastle over 3 months with the help of CS. im happy to accomodate as much as possible, it would be nice to help some travellers enjoy their times as much as some complete strangers have helped me on mine.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've helped host and had surfers round quite a bit due to my ex-housemates being on CS as well, always a good laugh to show people round and have a few beers....or even more than a few. I dont mind showing round if ive got the time and/or money. Ive been living in Newcastle for 5 years so as for the nightlife...i can help.
