About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and meet new people from different cultures and walks of life. Im pretty laid back and would like to think that I am easy to get on with :) my main passion is music and in particular playing guitar, if you are in my company for any length of time you will most likely hear me strumming away, although I don't sing as I cant hold a tune to save myself :)

Me and my girlfriend Keri live in a small town in the north east of scotland with our two kids Elena and Rory. While hosting I would like to make myself available to show surfers around the local area and try to show you things that you would not find at the local travel agent. There are lots of beauty spots including the likes of castles, beaches and some great countryside. The local people are generaly warm and helpful and cost of living cheap in comparison the Scottish cities and far cheaper than major european cities, a beer will set you back around 3.5 euro and a good bar dinner around 12 euro.

You may wish to do the following, which are all within walking distance of my house.

Visit the beach (1/2 mile)
Tourist Information (1/2 mile)
Museum (1/2 mile)
Duff House Art Gallery (1/2 mile)
Aquarium (1 1/2 mile)
6 Pubs (1/2 mile)
Take a local tour with me (3-5 miles)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Happy to meet up and give a tour of my local area. I also have a home studio that can be used by visitors as accomodation. I work abroad for 6 months of the year. So feel free to get in touch if you are travelling to Banff and I will try my best to show the sights if I am home :D

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had about 10 hosting experience and had a great time every time. I am looking forward to doing lots more hosting and hope that all my guests love Banff :)
