About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life as much as possible and escape from the 'real world' as and when I can.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel where and when I can. I am always up for new things and going to new places.
I love meeting new people!
If I'm invited somewhere I say yes.
Friends would say I get excited / passionate about things.

I like to go out and watch live bands, drink too much cider and dance like a loon. It's been many years since I returned home from a year on the road and still struggle with the fact that the traveller life isn't always possible for ever.
I now live in Bridgwater with my son. He is with me most nights but not normally at the weekend. He's 3 and completely hilarious. I like to create and maintain a good atmosphere in the house so music, lights, candles, people and insense are always welcome. I like to go out to the pub or have a few people over on the weekend for drinks and a bbq or something similar. I'm either watching a film and in bed by 10 pm or I'm sharing the last Captain Morgan's at 6am. I don't have an off button.

I like random-ness and unexpected good times that happen. I appreciate good people.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you wish to be treated. (sometimes easier said than done). Try to be understanding.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like the oppertunity to re-pay all the kindness that was shown to me by my hosts over the years.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed around the world with only one minor bad experience involving a whip in a bed and a transvestite on drugs.

Interests

I try and keep a balance because when I party I party hard so I try (and often fail) to make sure I go to the gym each week and eat a reasonably healthy diet (weekends do not count) - I enjoy running and kettle's etc at the gym. I also love festivals and live music. I organise/promote quite a few gigs in the local area. I like tattoo's and individual style. I like people that like people and steer through the fog with a positive outlook. I find humour in everything and enjoy laughing until my cheeks hurt.
