CURRENT MISSION

Taking things apart, hoping to get it all back together again, some time

ABOUT ME

I'm a 31 year old, single architect, needing to get out of the office more!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm always looking for a better way to do something, so I challenge the system, and end up finding a better way (and then trying to sell it!) or believing fervently in the status quo.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined, so let me find my feet.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Often had people stay over on the couch, the floor, or pretty much any other available space when living in London. Best (or worst!) stories involved the 'permanent' residents, not the surfers...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Small things become amazing in retrospect, and big things sometimes fade - will have to think about his one!
