About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to learn

ABOUT ME

Enjoying playing with life and using spare time to LEARN...French, ukulele, how to make moisturiser...any thing that I don't already know (yes, that is a lot)

For me the best way to travel is to meet, work and stay with people from that part of the world and to share experiences in order to learn more about what's out there. To feel like a part of the world is...Priceless

PHILOSOPHY

He who establishes his argument by noise and command shows that his reason is weak... might have stolen that one, but it applies.

Everything happens for a reason.

You win some, you lose some...

accept and enjoy your past, celebrate your present and don't worry about your future. If anyone learns to do this tell me how... :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently travelling around the US, but when I get back home I'll be ready for some lovely surfers to become acquainted with my couch.

When in the Cotswolds:
I am a willing and able tour guide of the cotswolds, whilst I know there are not really any big city-type activities here, I have a vast knowledge of the petting farms, beautiful countryside walks, Birdland (does what it says on the box) AND a rather special model village frequented my non other than Brum, yes you read correctly, Brum!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Fo sho the terror of being munched on by the bear in the night when camping in the Carpathians and the beauty of waking up, still alive and to an unbelievable view of the clouds hanging in the valleys and the tops of the mountains poking through.
