CURRENT MISSION

TRAVEL THE WORLD - MEET GREAT FRIENDS

ABOUT ME

I was very much involved in couch surfing a few years back. I am now separated and live with a friend. I have a little girl who I spend a lot of time with and hold a full time job as a sales and marketing manager so my time is a little limited. So About me, well I like to travel (duh!) I am also a very keen football fan, both playing and watching! I like to see both touristy side of a place and also the local side and I love to party!! I live in Blackpool which is good mainly, but has virtually NO couchsurfers or people wanting to visit because of its close proximity to both Manchester and Liverpool!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short.. Dont waste it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If I am at home when you want to visit Blackpool, when possible I will allow people to surf at my house.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Already I have met alot of people I like very much and will be keeping in contact with!

Interests

Travelling of course, but I also have a burning passion for football (soccer). So where ever I go I will look to either visit a game or at least the stadiums....
I like to visit impressive buildings and enjoy the outdoors. I like to try and meet people and experience the culture of any country I may visit (the local way, rather than tourist).

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies - I like abit of anything really although comedy would be my main choice. I love the American Pie films, they just remind me of parties I have had as a youngster. Films such as Forrest Gump or The Green Mile. I love the old type Gangster films also such as Goodfellas, The Godfather & Scarface.
Books - I read alot of Mafia books as im interested in the history of it all and anything else just comes from what people have recommended.
Music - I will give anything a try although I must say I am not into the whole rap culture. Easy Listening, Rock and Roll and even abit of trance every now and then, its entirely dependant upon my mood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I got 6 gurkins on my burger in Borås!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

There are many things I would like to learn that I dont feel I have had the opportunity to. Local knowledge is second to none but sharing stories with guests opens the mind and opportunities.
