About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore and find new artistic and creative ventures.

ABOUT ME

I'm a mostly creative and busy individual who commits the majority of his time to the humanities.
I'm often a tad chatty, but equally in other moments exceedingly quiet.
I tend to be placid, jovial, rather light hearted, but sometimes I'm also intensely passionate and rather vocal.
But I'd consider myself very easy to get along with.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to meet new people and learn more of the life experiences of others. And I enjoy a thoroughly decent natter on all manner of subjects.
Especially over a couple of pints or a coffee, and in either social or more personal surroundings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy meeting new people and exchanging ideas. Happy to hang out with people who are open and relaxed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not hugely yet!
But would love to have some good accounts of the site eventually.

Interests

I Love art, galleries, museums, bookshops, cafe's and anything that relates to the humanities and arts entirely. I love to spend hours chatting and thinking over many creative projects and ideas. And try to be open to suggestion in any realm that's artistic or creative.
I like people who appreciate the qualities of day dreaming, having aspirations and appreciate being vital and extant. However challenging or complex life is.

Music, Movies, and Books

Far too many to mention, I "LOVE" books and though I don't watch films often, I do enjoy relaxing watching them.
My musical tastes are exceedingly eclectic, but I always go back to classical.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing an old guy in a church walk up plug in an i-pad and play techno and trance rather serenely.
Lots of things in life leave me amazed in regard to the kindness and altruism of others.
Being alive in itself is quite the amazing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

We learn from everyone, it's up to ourselves how we view the experience.
I also love other cultures, faiths and find a great fascination in how we believe things.
And I do know a modest amount on history and art which I love to share. And find great value in learning things I didn't know from others. Simply to exchange ideas and feelings.
