Hello!
I am Dave born and bred in Bristol UK and in my opinion one of the best places in the UK with so much diversity and events and just an exciting atmosphere all year round.
I am an enthusiastic and active person and i do not like to sit still for too long unless i have some wine and a good book to read. I enjoy the outdoors and often go on runs, walks and cycle rides wherever i can and i also love to travel and find new places though i am not much of a city dweller and you are most likely to find me on the beaten path surrounded by nature.
people call me bonkers and i relish it as i live life moment to moment and soak in everything i can and i can be annoyingly optimistic.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been told only good things about this service and the experiences people have and i want to give it a go and i am no stranger to crashing on peoples sofa’s but i love the idea of visiting places around the world and doing the same.
Chance to meet new people and have new experiences!
