About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To convince people its OK to look like a disfunctional grasshopper

ABOUT ME

My profession is Engineer, my passion is dance, my love is my children. But don't forget the dancing. If dancing was a hobby, I'd be a dancer. If weird was a hobby, I'd collect used tea bags from around the world and still be a dancer.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to be a good person, and try to work out what 'good' is.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've now hosted, been hosted, and had a chat or two.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

No disasters so far, and some good experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music, but I'm not sure if there is a common theme. Rokia Traore, Vaughn Williams, Muszikas, Johnathon Richman and the Modern Lovers, Ashkabad, Gloria Estafan, Sibel Can, Adele, so much great music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming with a whale shark, so overwhelming being encased in that fluid moment, and then so fleeting! And a rocket launch from Cape Canaveral - again in a separate world, this time of visceral explosions.

Teach, Learn, Share

Knowledgable people - people who have taken the time to really understand an aspect of our incredible universe

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer a host a cupcake if there is a cupcake shop nearby. And maybe I can offer some laughs if you speak English.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, Romania, Serbia, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States
