CURRENT MISSION

To embark on the biggest adventure of my life, before I return home, and see it for the first time

ABOUT ME

I'm a little, funny Brummie who left the creature comforts of home to step blindly into the big wide world on October 5th 2010, to embark on potentially his last big adventure.

As I work online, there need not be any definitive end in sight to this ongoing rollercoaster...

...but home will one day beckon me back I'm sure, and I'll return satisfied and energised to live the rest of my life.

And who knows...

...Birmingham City FC might be back in the Premiership by then.

PHILOSOPHY

Think positive...

...and look around you every once in a while

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is all brand new to me, but after my firsthand experience of the community in Shanghai, I'm a staunch believer in its powers

As of yet, only dialogue with fellow CS'ers across Asia. No couches yet.
