CURRENT MISSION

Beyond the winding road and around every bend, a beautiful land awaits for those who make it to the very end.

ABOUT ME

I´ve always wanted to travel, ever since I read about Captain Cook when I was a kid. These days I work as a primary school teacher. I get to teach everything from maths to geography to art. I also coach football at weekends and work as a travel writer and have compiled many humourous stories about my experiences. When visiting different places I love meeting new people and immersing myself into local cultures
I have travelled to over 100 countries and will soon be living in UAE and hope to host once again.

PHILOSOPHY

Work hard to achieve your big targets. Treat people with respect. Get out to meet as many people and see as many places as possible. Do it now; you won't have the energy when you retire.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I aim to share experiences and establish friendships with all that I am lucky enough to meet.
