CURRENT MISSION

Meet. Explore. Experience. Exchange.

ABOUT ME

I like to think I'm a calm, welcoming and easygoing type of person. Not a lot seems to bother me. I have a real interest in where people have come from and where they are going - both in life generally and on their travels. I also like to listen to tales of adventure and peoples experiences and life philosophies.

I think couchsurfing is a great way to travel, experience and meet new people. I prefer to be a traveller rather than a tourist. I believe that people, their stories and what they have to share are most crucial in getting to know a person, city or country.

I'm happy to chat and share stories over a meal or show you around London. I equally enjoy a chilled night out on the town, or staying in with friends and having long chats that run on into the night. At the very least l always try to cook a meal or meet up for a drink. I am happy to show you around, let you do your own thing or just chat about your travels and cook you up a nice dinner. Just send me a message...it's that easy!

PHILOSOPHY

Minimal possessions and maximum fun!

Come as a stranger and leave as a friend.

Treat others the way you yourself would like to be treated!

If it feels good, do it!

Live as if you were to die tomorrow, learn as though you were going to live forever!

A journey is best measured in friends made rather than miles travelled.

Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail....

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can meet up for a drink, a bike ride or show you a bit of London. I also attend as many CS events as I can too.

Intereses

Budget travel and Backpacking, Cycling, Walking, Hiking, Reading, Wandering, Sleeping in hammocks, Dreaming of the Greek Islands, Getting off the beaten track, Cooking, Swimming, Learning French (rather badly) and Spanish (even more badly), Meeting Couchsurfers, Healing & Relaxing Massage, Critical Mass bike rides and discovering secret London.

Música, películas y libros

My favourite movie is Into the Wild. I also watch a lot of World Cinema - usually because the movies have more substance than your usual Hollywood blockbuster. I also love to read. Especially books I can't put down. Usually anything that keeps me turning the pages or moves me in some way.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Travel. I love hearing about places I haven't been to yet or sharing tips about places I have been.

Massage. I'm training as a massage therapist right now and am trying to improve my skills. Let me know if you would like to try. I'm always looking for willing participants! I need lots of practice.

Cook and drink beer. We can cook something together and share a few beers, have a BBQ (if the sun is out) or go to the local pub.

I like this quote....

“And what hurts is the steadily diminishing humanity of those fighting to hold jobs they don’t want but fear the alternative worse. People simply empty out. They are bodies with fearful and obedient minds. The color leaves the eye. The voice becomes ugly. And the body. The hair. The fingernails. The shoes. Everything does.

As a young man I could not believe that people could give their lives over to those conditions. As an old man, I still can’t believe it. What do they do it for? Sex? TV? An automobile on monthly payments? Or children? Children who are just going to do the same things that they did?”
