CURRENT MISSION

Sailing...

ABOUT ME

As of 2011 I am officially a sailor. Time on land is incidental - not sure what to do when things aren't rocking... ;)

PHILOSOPHY

"Il faut cultiver notre jardin"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing, hosting when I can, and spreading the word.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Spent a month in the Overstay in Bangkok, met loads of interesting people, had a lot of crazy nights, and decided it was time to get into the couchsurfing scene! Have since wound up on one couch or another, generally not through the official channels though...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed to the Equator and back as part of the first ever Neptune Regatta 2011. AND the boat I was on, Windsikher, got line honours (first across the finish line)!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a jack-of-all-trades sort of person: done a bit of martial arts training (karate, jiu jitsu, kung fu/self-defence), can play guitar a bit, speak bits of various languages, enjoy DIY/decorating, etc etc. I love skills exchange - always happy to share any knowledge, and up for learning whatever anyone wants to teach me.
