CURRENT MISSION Coffee tour of Europe! ABOUT ME I am on my way to Australia (via Europe) with my partner Ruth.I have not been in a position to host couchsurfers for a while now and am only just learning what life is like from the perspective of the couch. I am clean and friendly and I make a damn good cup of coffee. PHILOSOPHY "Take your role in life seriously, but never take yourselft seriously in performing that role" - (Stolen from a very wise friend).

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Did have a couch, a very fine couch indeed. Now I have no couch, sob sob. I participate by keeping tabs on the community and eventually setting up a new basecamp for surfers to come crash at. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I have met the majority of my favourite people through couchsurfing and can't wait to meet more of them!
Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: Donnie Darko, anything by Monty Python, Shaun of the Dead, Transformers: The original movie. Music: The Beatles, Chili's, Pixies, Oasis, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Neutral Milk Hotel, The Decemberists, The Kinks, Old Crow Medicine Show, Reel Big Fish, Goldfinger, the list goes on... (lot's of Ska) Books: Anything by John Steinbeck or George Orwell.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Learning to surf in Lisbon where, as it turns out, the water is still the Atlantic and ice cold even in the middle of summer! Living in a shared house in London, I was able to share my living space with artists, life coaches, shop owners and all manner of good folk.
