I'm a pretty laid-back person. I like keeping active, filling my spare time with friends and fun stuff. Biggest buzz I get is arriving in a new place, so I reckon I have to keep on finding new places. A big fan of books and films, into adrenaline sports, scuba diving, hiking and dancing. Music-wise I like all-sorts, always open to new bands

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people of course. To peek into their lives and understand how similar and different we all are.

Interests

If you have something to show/teach/tell/feed me that you're enthusiastic about I will most likely be interested. I love new stuff, it can take any form really.
I do most things while listening to music, and I enjoy anything that makes me tap a foot. Sports-wise I'm into physically pushing myself, dancing, getting an adrenaline buzz. I am a recent convert to kitesurfing, and have a diving cert, bungee jumped a couple of times, skydived, spent a few summers teaching sailing. I worked as a photographer for a while and need to get back into it

Music, Movies, and Books

Music-Joanna Newsom, Hosier, Elbow, Ludovico Einaudi, Coldplay, Frightened Rabbit, Jonsi, First Aid Kit, Pink Floyd, Milky Chance, Villagers and I could list on forever. Oh and living in Hamburg really increased my love of electro. That city knows how to party.
Movies - Anything...except horror/heart-attack inducing stuff.
Books - Any and all types. Sci-fi/Fantasy are favourite genres, especially Pat Rothfuss.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a stand-off between a water buffalo and a Komodo dragon.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a repertoire of terrible jokes that I would be happy to share with anyone who'd listen. Also willing to expand said repertoire if you would like to contribute.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like cooking, and its a nice way to say 'thank you' for a hosts hospitality.
