CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hey there, I'm Benjamin.

I'm a youth soccer coach from London, UK. I'm new to it, it's my dream job and I'm loving life at the moment.

I'm a vegan, have been since the beginning of the year and am never going back to my carnivorous ways. I believe in trying things out for yourself, rather than relying on the testimony of others.

I have a degree in Philosophy which gives me license to be a smart-arse at all times.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life begins when you exit the comfort zone"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well travelled but never couch surfed! Always had a bed to lie in.

Countries visited thus far: England, Wales, Scotland, France, Spain, Andorra, Italy, Portugal, Germany, Liechtenstein, Austria, Belgium, The Netherlands, Luxembourg, Denmark, Greece, the USA (California, New York & New Jersey).

My next trip is to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil! Looking for cool couchbrothers & couchsisters to hook me up for June/July 2014.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mount Tibidabo, Barcelona. When you're up there, you are literally on God's doorstep. I felt like Zeus sitting atop Mount Olympus, looking down on mankind.

I make great vegan food.
I can teach some Philosophy.
I can help out with languages (French is my best, German not far behind, learning Japanese, Spanish & Brazilian Portuguese)
I am a soccer coach and will happily give free soccer tuition.
