About Me

CURRENT MISSION
To have surfers READ MY PROFILE its only "GOOD MANNERS" and not waste my and their time sending a message or request when they know nothing about me or have not filled in their profile fully themselves.

My real mission is:
to see as many countries in the world as possible in my lifetime

ABOUT ME
A gay man who is partnered with the wonderful Terry and because I am always travelling and this explains why very few people have ever couch surfed with me!!!!! Teaching in a school for severly handicapped children.

PHILOSOPHY

To get out there and live life to the maximum

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to travel around the world lots and meet people. Because for me travelling is more about the people than the places and seeing how they live their lives. Have had Adil & Aziz come and stay with me for the month of February 2009 and they became very active members of the Perth sc community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It has always been a positive experience so much so I have been invited to return and stay with some hosts again and again...and have been lucky enough to be able to .....Also, have stayed with lots of people via hospitalityclub.org, globalfreeloaders.com , place2stay.net, stay4free.com, travelhoo.com, globiwalk.com... But how come surfers who want to stay with me do not read the MY HOME section to really read about ME!

Interests

Swimming Cycling Reading Eating Baking Walking Movies & talking with people

People who read my profile fully especially the My Home section and have similar interests to me I am not a party animal and I don't drink so I will not be having a beer with you!

Music, Movies, and Books

Like to go to movies read books too

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been to Iran for 30 days & 4 hours over my visa during the 2009- and back again in 2012 & 2015- election....Met amazing wonderful people and loved the country, the food and most of all the people.

A couch surfer I stayed with is a Pilot and I bought a full fare ticket and was invited to sit in the cockpit in 2009!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to share with the people that are interested about my life and I love to listen to how others lives have been lived and to learn that basically we are all the same but some of us may have not had the same opportunities in life.
