All the below is from quite a few years ago now - but I kinda like to keep it :) Now I'm a bit older (obviously) - greyer, fatter, married... that's life I guess :D I was off couchsurfing for a few years but now we're back in the game! We have a spare room after all! Just a cheeky, chilled out, happy-go-lucky kind of guy - down to earth, but adventurous and playful, a little intellectual and sometimes competitive (Ok, always competitive, but you won't know it if I'm losing!) :)I try to be kind, polite and considerate... although like everyone I guess, I've made mistakes! I often think of myself as shy, but people tell me I'm not. Strange!Maybe (Ha! "maybe"!) I'm a bit of a fool; I listen to my heart rather more than my head or, more importantly, other people. I managed to escape reality and get across Latin America for about 18 months a while back. I loved every minute... but now... I am home :( It's all good though. I'm just working working working to get back to doing what I love - discovering new places, drinking with new people and waking up late! PHILOSOPHY Live, Learn and Laugh :) "Hasta La Victoria Siempre!!" "Un pour tous et tous pour un!" "Love, it will not betray you, dismay or enslave you, it will set you free" "Everything happens for a reason" Hmmm... maybe... let's see... "Hey miiiister, you got a light?" :)

Почему я на Couchsurfing
Still wondering if some of these adventures are real or just dreams. Ze journeys zeem to be punctuating ze life. Is anything real anyway? WooOOOooOO. Heh heh :P But seriously, I am. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE All wonderful :) Virtually sublime! Shiiiiiiiiiiiit, I missed the ridiculous... the party of the bees and the ladybirds :'( I really wanted to go.
Музыка, кино и книги
Music: errr, everything I guess - except the stuff that nobody likes - the stuff in the charts ;) No, but really... I like raving - techno and drum n bass, I LOVE the Beatles (they brought my mum from France to England - and they have a song for every mood!!), rock festivals are really good (but expensive! You must go to Glastonbury!), and old skool hip hop gets me movin' too :) Movies: Well, I'm pretty sick of the standard Hollywood crap that gets churned out every year, I like something different... maybe with a bit of a philosophical vibe to it. Nothing scary though!! Please! A Night At The Roxbury, Dazed and Confused, Friday, La Vita E Bella... so good! Books: I like reading but I don't get round to it so often!! Right now I'm reading something very interesting called Views From The Real World - the ideas are intense! I read some real good books on some real long bus journeys, mmm... can't think of them now - we'll talk about it when we meet if you like, hehe.
Одно удивительное, что я сделал
Sitting inside Stonehenge circle as the sun came up on the solstice was pretty damn cool!! Machu Pichu - WOW Lake Atitlan - Beautiful The girl behind the bar in Rome - " !!" We lost our important little bag in Nicaragua, and somebody actually brought it back to us!!! With camera, money, passports, everything!! When does that happen???
Учить, учиться, делиться
I played the guitar pretty badly until my little brother sold it while I was away. I dance like a fool. I can't draw. I have a French mother but I don't speak French. I gess my sspelllign is ok. I could skateboard but I'd dislocate my shoulder! This section is depressing! :P Ahhh yesss, AND, once upon a time (if I remember rightly), in a galaxy far, far away... I was once told by one wonderful beautiful old lady (riding a raccoon no less!) that I'm NOT actually *THE* 100% guaranteed -fully-certified- SHITTIEST English teacher in the whole entire universe. And I felt quite good about myself for about a second. And then it stopped :)

I love to learn about everything really. Sometimes it means I flit like a butterfly between different subjects and disciplines, acquiring bits and pieces of all but not accomplishing much!
