COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Almost all postitive
Interests
I stream music and movies, go to the cinema, do dog walking, collect records, books and casettes, see my friends and host when possible :)
For the last 17 year's or so I've donated and fund raised for NGOs and charity's. I've worked for Oxfam in a book and record shop, and worked overseas digging composting toilets in the amazon.
I haven't travelled since 2017 but, I'd like to get back into Europe 🇪🇺 and possibly the Canary Islands 🇮🇨 again. I've got a CS friend in Lyon France 🇫🇷, two in the balearic islands and others in Canada 🇨🇦 so some options for travel in future.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love music, i stream on Tidal with my Bluetooth headphones generally, I'm listening to more jazz, 60s music also new stuff to, i have an extensive record, cassette collection. I stream movies on Mubi at home and go to the cinema once a week generally. I collect first edition books from Goldsboro books in london, I've got a subscription to their Premier and Sci fi/fantasy accounts.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I spent 8 nights in Scandinavia in February 2016.In Stockholm where I stayed in Gamla Stan, the old town on an island is so cool. I walked right out to the edge of the city along a frozen river, next was Helsinki where I explored the area in several feet of snow. Finally Oslo where I explored the city, visited museum's, walk up the roof of the opera, saw the view and took some photographs.
Teach, Learn, Share
Be physical and get outdoors, it creates positive energy and good things will happen..
