CURRENT MISSION

Brushing up on my French and Spanish

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going guy, very interested in different cultures and languages. Never really like to stay in one place for too long! I love to learn so I'd be grateful if you could teach me... anything!

I love living and traveling abroad. France - 6 months, Jordan - 9 months and Argentina - 3 months. I've also spent 2 months traveling in Europe and 4 months on the move in the middle east....

I arrived back in the UK in early August 2012 having spent 3 months in Argentina.

HOPING TO START HOSTING IN LONDON SOMETIME IN SUMMER 2013

PHILOSOPHY

"It's always better on holiday, that's why we only work when we need the money"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host when I'm in one place for a while and surf when I'm on the move - I love couchsurfing!

I look forward to introducing new and exciting people to couch surfing who I feel could benefit from and offer a lot to the experience.

Interests

Languages!!! I speak French, Spanish and a little Arabic. (Has to be said I've forgotten most of my Arabic now.

Among other things, I like live music, cycling and of course, like all couchsurfers - I don't mind a good bit of travel.

So far...

Music, Movies, and Books

After a long day I love nothing more than settling down with a good film!

Music wise - Oh so, so much! I'm into all sorts of music but my favorite bands are the Strokes and the Editors.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once saw a guy trying to sell Samurai swords at traffic lights in Lebanon. He had two racks of three. Hands down one of the most bizarre things I've seen in my entire life!

More recently I saw another guy trying to sell fishing rods at traffic lights. It blows my mind! I mean - come on - who's ever bought a fishing rod in a car?

Teach, Learn, Share

A beer bottle can be opened with pretty much anything! Big fan of languages - I'm keen to learn any phrases you can teach me in any language - I'd like to learn to juggle with more than three balls!

If you can help me with my French or Spanish I'll be eternally grateful!
