About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See the world before it's gone...

ABOUT ME

My story is still being written. I am a habitual line-stepper, a natural born world-shaker, an impulsive geek full of contradictions, sometimes chaotic but always brilliant.

>:3

PHILOSOPHY

Secular Humanism, Analytic philosophy and Vegetarianism.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We primarily host. I'll be getting out to explore the world soon...

I AM TRAVELLING NOW, So please send requests to the other CS profile (the Jones'), thank you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've rarely had a bad experience hosting. I enjoy meeting many different people with a variety of viewpoints.

My experience with surfing has been difficult, with only a few people actually responding to requests and then most assuming you're using copypasta. :|

Interests

I like live music, delicious beer, free spirits, stray cats, old cars, cheap wine, stolen books and foreign films, no-schedule sailing and independent travel...

Music, Movies, and Books

Mod, punk, postpunk, new wave, 8-bit, electro, nu-rave... wait, wtf is nu-rave? ahhh, nevermind. I listen to some different things and I'm always looking to hear new music, particularly if it's live.

I love books and will gladly trade you some if I have any spare. I typically enjoy classics or beat authors...

I really enjoy old movies, those that share an idea or observation of their society rather than sell a product or franchise... think anything with Humphrey Bogart, Gregory Peck or Paul Newman.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed to Moreton Island and fed wild dolphins... learning that you cannot have a schedule when you're sailing.

Climbed the great pyramids of Giza after the fall of a dictator.

Explored Petra on horseback and Wadi Rum on camelback. The deafening silence of the desert at night.

Photographed a deserted Madain Saleh and followed the remains of the Hejaz railway back to Medina.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always there to offer good conversation and an independent point of view.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bahrain, Czech Republic, Egypt, Germany, Jordan, Poland, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia
