PLEASE NOTE - we only have the capacity to accommodate one couchsurfer at a time as we have a small house which already contains a small family and a big dog. We cannot accept couples or groups. Thanks.

CURRENT MISSION

Be receptive, be responsive, be amazing.... well, this used to be my mission, now my mission seems to be more like 'do whatever I can to ensure my wee boy has a strong foundation in this wonky world.'

ABOUT ME

My partner, young son and I have nestled ourselves in the countryside of Golden Bay, back in the community (and the same house!) that I grew up in. We may be able to host Couch Surfers occasionally but we are a family in a small house so it would need to be the right person and not for too long.

PHILOSOPHY

'It is good to have an end to journey towards, but it is the journey that matters in the end'
- Ursula LeGuin

Every decision I make is the right one because it is the only one... I am not sure that makes sense, but I understand it

Life, death, life

Plant sugarcanes

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sitting up on a hill in the late evening sunlight of a Scottish summer, looking out over the golden hills with nothing for miles and realising how much I must have missed the silence and beauty of open space.
