About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Saving to travel to South America this winter, and buy a house!

ABOUT ME

I'm from Portsmouth, and am currently living in Milton on the east side of the island where i share a 2 bedroom house with my lovely Girlfriend Emma.

I work as a Mechanical engineer, designing and manufacturing components for a range of industries. Work can be very busy, Emma and I usually work quite long hours during the week, so weekends are best for hosting.

I'd like to think I'm fun to be around, I like to party and things usually tend to get quite silly. I love meeting new people and rarely turn down an opportunity to try something new.
I really like to wind down at the weekends and have a lot of fun, usually out with friends on a Friday/Saturday evening for food/drinks/dancing. You are most welcome to join us :)
I have a great group of friends, a number of whom are quite involved in couch surfing, so you are sure to fit right in.

In my spare time I enjoy attending a monthly board games club and Skeptics in the pub (talks and discussion on science/philosophy)

I also love music, I'm a Beat boxer, and Emcee, and over the years have performed with a few local groups at venues around the UK.

Portsmouth is Rad, It's got the sea, the Countryside, 45mins from the New forest national park. 2 hours from London or Brighton by train. And the City is full of history, great food, and awesome party's

We have a spare room with a double futon for guests

Well, that's Me :)

PHILOSOPHY

Never say no (almost)
