About Me

Recently decided to take some much needed time out away from the 9-5 office working environment to focus more on myself. And it’s long overdue!
Actively taking back my life to rediscover what’s important to me in life!

Backpacking and hitchhiking trip last year around mainland Europe in Belgium, The Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Switzerland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Austria, Slovakia and Germany (wherever the road took me) ...

Exploring the cities and the nature too, met lots of wonderful people, saw the sights and hung out ;))

Was a very warm and humbling experience!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It’s always great to meet interesting new people and making new friends!

Interests

Really love to catch a good movie, at home or the cinema. Can enjoy anything as long as it has a strong cast or storyline...
And really really enjoy Cuban Salsa dancing and try to do it 2-3 times a week. It’s something that never fails to put a smile on your face!

Another passion I really enjoy but have neglected recently are photography.
I have a nice dslr.... but not picked it up in many many months... I think the purchase of a new 50mm lens would reinvigorate my enthusiasm again ;)

Also into running, bouldering (indoor climbing) and hiking when I have the time,
And just spending time with friends talking or having a coffee or a drink.

Music, Movies, and Books

Huge lover of movies. Enjoy most film genres except for horror. No way!
Used to go to a lot of live music events and gigs. Something I’ve not done much of recently so I’d really like to start going again.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once drove from The Midlands in England, to Stockholm Sweden and back in a week. Was a fantastic experience stopping in Belgium, Germany and Denmark along the way. Would love to do it again, but definitely two people minimum on the next crazy road trip!

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning Spanish ... slowly
