PHILOSOPHY
A ship may stay in the harbour but it was never made to stay in the harbour.
Truth is not what you know...it is what you believe.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I lived with parents in Ireland up to December of 2009. It was a real test but an unexpected positive one. It is in some ways, the ultimate couchsurfing learning experience as an adult. I firmly believe in the couch surfing ethos that we as human beings, have to share... in order to grow.
Interests
People interest me. New cultures and new food and new ways to cook food interests me.I have been in around 40 countries in the world and so I have been really lucky.
I love salsa, cheezy dancing, poetry reciting, Tai Chi, wine tasting, swimming, pool, city cycle tours, crazy golf, zumba, Chelsea FC and tennis. That's all I say for now.

Music, Movies, and Books
Depends on my mood. For dancing I love salsa, funky 70s and 80s pop.
To chill I love classical, world music and reggae.
Manu Chow and Primal Scream are always good.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
After leaving work one Thursday evening I flew from London Heathrow to Perth, Australia. Once I arrived in Perth, I raced to the marina and wolfed down a breakfast. I then raced back to the airport and got back to the UK on Sunday evening, just in time to start work again Monday morning. It was not an amazing feat... just a bit ridiculous. And it makes me smile to this day.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach English, Salsa, CBT, tennis, web page design, sl and Reiki. I can also teach you how to publish your own wonderful dusty works of unpublished creativity.
