About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be happy and enjoy meeting and making new friends. Live to 100 with the spirit and mental agility of a 30 year old.

ABOUT ME

I am a mature graduate currently developing a career. I like to keep fit and regularly swim, run and cycle (not Ironman standard). I love the great doors and visiting new places both here in UK and when possible abroad. I like to eat fresh food and enjoy home cooking, making wine from wild ingredients and searching for bargains in charity shops or boot sales. I like to socialise and learn from people and their experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Do as you would be done by is a fair example of my personal outlook on life. My philosophy is always look on the bright side of life. Dismiss negative thoughts. Remember, many links make a chain.
We cannot all be masters of everything we survey.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Exploring the Jurassic coast and learning from geology. Hiking along national footpaths, disused railways, canals, lakes, rivers. Travelling around the UK, camping and visiting historical buildings. Making wine from wild ingredients.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies, best has to be the Greenmile. Music, I like just about any type of music, so long as the lyrics are audible and intelligable. I am not taken with music or films that have swear words. I like books that tell a real story of life, particularly triumph over adversity.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I flew in a hot air balloon over the Blackmore Vale earlier this year. Fantastic experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to meet people from humble backgrounds. Learn a practical skill. If I cannot communicate with them, to observe and learn from their actions. I am like most English people am not a linguist. What special skills do I have, tricky question. Local knowledge of area, travel options, events, source contacts. This whole couch surfing is new to me so I am here to learn and share.
