CURRENT MISSION

"The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page" St Augustine

I'll host when I can plus I'd like to see what I can of this diverse planet of ours and to make a few friends along the way. If she's about you might get to meet my partner Malou-she loves cooking (thank god!)

ABOUT ME

Laid back, enjoy a laugh, not the worst of listeners, I tend to be drawn not to the loudest of a group-we've all got a worthwhile story to tell.
PHILOSOPHY

Treat people as you wish to be treated

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted in the past, time I tried surfing too methinks.
I thoroughly enjoy hosting-it's something I will undoubtedly continue to do when I can. I'll host primarily for 1 night, maximum 2. Time constraints will not allow for more unfortunately.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed in Lisbon and Morocco, good times had. Always fun to host.
I did a bit of wooffing in Australia which was fantastic.

Interests

Sports of pretty much any description, trips away, experiencing new cultures, listening to the radio, music,current affairs, a good debate on anything, spending as much time as I can with my wonderful young son

Music, Movies, and Books

Alternative, rock music
Favourites include Doves, Arcade Fire, The Pogues, The Clash, Muse, Dylan, Cash, Springsteen, Petty, Stevens.
Travel books and the atlas I love
Movies: Incendies, The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory-obviously the original!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Orangutans in the wild
Sky dive
Mongolia
Probably a few more will come to mind with a pint lol

Teach, Learn, Share

I can flare my nostrils-many people think they can do this but alas many cannot :)
After that I don't know what to say,
Maybe you tell me when you're/I'm leaving
