Mainly I don't use couch surfing anymore, (as of 2019) but there is some unfinished business i have here so i will keep it to keep in touch with some friends

Im a real life Ralph Wiggum

WARNING!!! COUCHSURFING IS NOT GRINDER

now we got that out the way... The name is Danish Malik and i dont live in Melbs anymore... I am the sorta person who is up for leaving everything at no notice and going on a randomly amazing adventure SO IF YOU HAVE A PLAN OR EVEN NO PLAN AT ALL THEN GET IN TOUCH, even if you are 12 time zones away im sure we can meet in the middle in a few months or whatever
the app has been going really downhill since 2017 when i first used it-- i dont think its the app, maybe the quality of people on the app lol

Recently found out that i have the same bday as Bart Simpson and that my parents named me after Dennis the menace

Ok im glasgow born, being in Australia for a year has helped me to lose my Scottish accent but it's still there..
political correctness makes me puke

Glasgow for those of you who dont know is the worst place in Scotland, which in turn is one of the best places on Earth
(scenery-wise, at least)

Ive missed over ten flights for various reasons, and im very unreliable...

Its been too long since ive written this much about myself.. Reminds me of my bebo days

I still find it difficult to come to terms with the idea of visiting someone elses house... never mind staying over... despite having Couchsurfed stayed at others place a few times... i dont even feel comfortable at my cousin's house... now im 30, i dont think this can change.. but i no longer care

If you like what you've read... feel free to come hangout

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet spirited people.. to find inspiration which is becoming more and more rare every day..

To fix peoples English and to learn other languages a little..

To find experiences I can write about one day, I love how people hear more stories about me than I can actually remember being in.. (my highschool days were fun)

To go down in history

To find like minded nutters

Interests

Escaping.. adventure.. not crashing my bicycle.. wearing tinfoil hats.. ancient civilisations.. swinging from trees and eating bananas whilst calling out ooo ooo aaa aaa

Sooo many times ive been at a meeting point to meet a CSer and ive approached the wrong person and said "hello are you... Ricardo (for example) ?" and its been the wrong person AKWARD!!!! LOL they probably thought i was cruising for ass or something OLOLOLOLOOOOOOLLLLLOLLLOL

I actually enjoy reading Spanish people's profiles on here: their English spelling and grammar mistakes are sooo cute i wanna cuddle them all
😄😝 BEWARE O SPANIARDS! 😘😇

I find it depressing to see Australians outside of Australia... 😕

Music, Movies, and Books

Topgun...80s action films are lyfff... And tbh i need to watch more..

Music is anything i can jump about to, but the nineties has always had priority over all else, except the 80s which is the stuff
Was sorta into ultrafuturistic-dance music for a while but i began to depart from reality so i pulled back before i got into transhumanism or some shit like that, but you need to have a vice or two if you live somewhere as depressing as Glasgow Scotland

Boooks... I need to read more but like it says in the dedications to "the Conference" by Kevin Mckinley: anything with pictures only

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One crazy thing only???

But yeah ive driven a train,
Ive broke into a boat and took it for a spin too
also drove unattended cherrypickers around many a night
And umm lived on Earth for 29 years without leaving
travelled to 30? countries,
lived in China and Australia
Done my own hair (where u see it blonde or blue i cut it too, amatuer but i think im doing well as one)
Trekked upto thousands of miles, cycled even more,
Gave up a few bad habits lol,
Splashed around in Buckingham palaces fountain at 5am with only the armed police to look at me like wtf?!,
missed the last train home so i cycled the 49miles instead at 3AM !!!,
missed the last bus home from Heathrow so i slept in somebody's parked car!!!
thrown a beach party attended by almost a hundred people without me even turning up
Been KO-ed by a riot officer
Freeclimbed a mountain, no ropes no safety, nobody to help me if anything went wrong, for miles
went on a safari looking for wallabies (and we found them! amazingly) somewhere in Europe (cant share where for conservation reasons),
Offended the british olympic cycling team after i met them in a cafe,
been in a few crashes too..
Jumped in a car with a random ozzy and went on a 3 day road trip camping in wilderness's and sleeping in bothy's and eating biscuits
Been serenaded by my friend who is a busker in Singapore in front of many people.. embarrassing but sweet..
I've been spotted on google streetview in 3 different places at least and potentially another two where i spotted their car creeping about

I think the greatest thing ive done is take people to new places and have them experience new experiences and overcome their fears..

And you want me to pick only ONE from ALL that?

Teach, Learn, Share

What? I can teach English lol Ive done so across the glob, and to people from across the glob

I can share scotland with u.. Um i could probably build u a house but you might need to help.. Or i could teach u what i know about building, i can share my friends with you... Who you will immediately abandon me for without a second thought lol! You snakes!!!

Heres one --- i can share with u my epic tales of adventure

Id like to learn to swim, to play golf, to fly (yep), to hold a normal conversation even! I will be your penpal for ever (depends on how long you live)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A big dance-off
Rhythmic chanting
Paranormal hallucinations
Kidding,
i can share my imagination and dreams and ideas.. I can show you how to live an extraordinary life, even better i can show u an extraordinary time in your own city, because u cant expect someone like me to sit in a pub or a cafe all evening, that aint my cup of tea, I'll go and look for stuff to do then do it and make sure u join in the fun! Im also happy to say recently i got a standing ovation (encore to my left, encore my right)

if you read ALL that i am very impressed and will buy you a coffee, just reiterate it all when we meet and I'll get you it
