About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Training to swim the length of Lake Bala in Wales (5.5km) after my failed attempt last time round.

ABOUT ME

I travelled quite a bit in my teens/early 20's and then got stuck into the mundane routine of work. Thankfully I now have an awesoeme job and I am taking opportunities where I can to travel again

PHILOSOPHY
Pain killers will fix me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've learned that Couchsurfers know the better bars and the great city/countryside views without selling you left leg to see them. re great. Also, its nice to meet nice people

Interests

I really love outdoor sports. Im always up for getting outside and doing something adventurous, usually something that causes blisters.
I have swam a some quite long distance in some very cold lakes. I only nearly drowned once.

I studied criminology and sociology at university which was really interesting. I work for Forestry England at Delamere Forest.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love loads of music from the 60's and 70's,(the stones, hendrix, etc) plus a bit of folk and a bit of indie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I kayaked 127 miles from Leeds to Liverpool to raise money for an orphanage that I helped to renovate in Kathmandu, Nepal.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can take you climbing, open water swimming and of course the best places to get a drink in liverpool.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'll wash your dishes and put together that piece of flat pack furniture you have been putting off for ages. Of course the customary beers and a drunken debate is always on offer.
