About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Erm....Make Babies not War...?

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going, talkative guy, confident and able to talk to anyone. I'm very caring and respectful of other people, but that won't stop me making a joke (of you or myself!)

PHILOSOPHY

anything and everything is possible!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to throw myself into things! I've couchsurfed in France and hosted people there too.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The worst experience I ever had was staying in a box room, no bigger than 7 feet by 7 feet, which had a fold-out bed and only a sink to wash myself in. To make it worse, I was sharing with a friend and the flat was at the top of a very tall building. However, I didn't complain as it was free!
