CURRENT MISSION Helping people to understand and take action on climate change ABOUT ME I am a proud father, love living in mid Wales, love my work. I work, write and talk widely about climate change for a small charity I founded. After 25 years of working on global environment and social rights issues I have friends around the world. I have also travelled far and wide including a chunk of time spent in Papua New Guinea saving rainforests. PHILOSOPHY I care very much about environmental issues and try to have a low impact myself. But I am not judgmental and have my own quirks, like to eat anything, have fun, the odd cigarette. So I am always up for meeting new people and it is a rare train or bus trip when I don't find myself chatting with someone and learning something new.

Warum ich auf Couchsurfing bin
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I often travel for my work but LOATHE the whole lonely antiseptic side of staying in hotels. I have always traveled rough, done a lot of backpacking and all I need is a couch or even a bit of floor. I always stay with friends if I can, but sometimes i am in a place where I don't already know people, so I would always prefer to stay somewhere and meet new people. None at all- I am new to this, but keen to participate, host people and, hopefully have places I can stay.

Lehren, Lernen, Teilen
Anything about climate change, rainforests, any of my interests and passions. I often give workshops on my work and my various interests so always happy to talk, (but only if asked- I don't want to lecture people).
Meine Interessen
I have many, too many enthusiasms and collections (architecture, art, music- esp vintage jazz, food, comics. film - I am working through my collection of the worlds 1000 best films and of course the environment) I also like meeting new people and learning about them- especially people who are nothing like me because that is how you really find something new and interesting ! I can listen and join in too!
