CURRENT MISSION

🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

*Priority is given to folks over 30 and fellow queers*

ABOUT ME
firstly- I am living with/travelling with my girlfriend (we are FLAMING homosexuals ), and we have a very sweet dog. Fergal.

- my girlfriends profile here- https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/alicedrury/

I think a lot about class politics, environmental and anarchist politics and sustainable housing. I am digging dogs a lot. Today a gorgeous scotty dog came up to me at work and jumped on me! Delightful.

BIKES, cycling and bikes some more. I am increasingly having a love affair with gardening and nature and am really pulled and inspired by deep ecology stuff. Always keen for in-depth discussion whether it be about a current event, a book, political ideology, TV series etc. I am easy going, i don't tend to use maps, i love to cook big meals and play board games!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I learnt the entire Kate Bush dance to 'Wuthering Heights'.. yeah not that amazing, but it is a complicated dance people! We leant the dance for a short film we were making many years ago... we were dressed up as gay boy tradies who get swept away into Kate land... it was very homoerotic. Now i am basically a gay boy tradie... so it was oddly spot on. Life/art imitation etc etc
