Interested in writing, learning Czech ( friends in Czech Republic), amateur astronomy, music playing and listening, roller blading, cycling and travel. I have spent a lot of time and energy passing on medical physics skills to the younger generation ( mainly 20-40 age group). I am very young at heart

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
I have been on before as a host (see other John Turner and more references!) but now I wish to avail of other hosts as I travel at a lower budget in retirement. I live in a beautiful part or New Zealand and enjoy meeting other people both young and old. My home is near the beach about 5 km from Nelson. My holiday home and Astronomical Observatory is on a peninsula in the beautiful Marlborough Sounds.

Una cosa increíble que he hecho
Built my own private astronomical observatory in Marlborough Sounds, New Zealand which is accessible only by boat.
Enseña, aprende, comparte
I am keen to teach English and to learn Czech and French (quid pro quo!)
Lo que puedo ofrecer a los hosts
Life Experience and enthusiasm. My love of unspoilt natural beauty but also my love of European History and the tremendous legacy of buildings and remembrances of the past.
