About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring Europe, experiencing as much as possible on small budgets

ABOUT ME

Having spent most of my life exploring the North of England oblivious to the adventures and possibilities available on the continent, my mind was blown completely open when I was given the great opportunity to relocate to Eastern Europe (specifically Romania) by the company that I was working for at the time.

I now love to explore all the great cities around Europe, sampling the best foods and meeting lovely new people as I go!

PHILOSOPHY

Not enough hours in the day, too much stuff to know about and do... where do I begin? where next?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I don't have enough room to host anyone but am available to meet up, give advice, drink, eat and chat to anyone in Bucharest.

I'm all about exploring new cities in Europe at the moment, and am keen to learn as much history, language and culture as possible in each of the cities i visit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to couch surfing but have always been an adventuorer and highly social.

It's a couple of friends that have encouraged me to sign up so I reckon I'm more or less ONE OF US!

However, I do much prefer to sleep on beds rather than couch's :-)

Interests

Music, video games, history, politics, religion, science, films, philosophy, comedy, non-fiction literature... loads of stuff really, except sport.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
