About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The Busking Project

ABOUT ME

I love to travel, read, write, kayak, and climb. I've published some short stories and am trying to publish a collection. I'm a kayaking and climbing instructor and I play canoe polo. I am working on The Busking Project - documenting street performers around the world (www.thebuskingproject.com).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I am semi-nomadic and do not have a fixed place to host, but the amazing experiences I've had surfing will definitely lead me to being a hoster when I have a spare couch!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm still trying to work out if it is coincidence or the phenomenally successful couchsurfing system - but every experience has been fantastic and enlightening.

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

George Saunders is possibly the best short story writer ever.
