Hey I'm John! I live with my partner Bruce and our cat Longitude in a house in Edinburgh. We live right next to a castle with great views across the city. We're looking to meet fun and interesting people from around the world. I'm happy to show you around and give some recommendations about Edinburgh 😊

I love countries and maps. I'm always interested in finding out more about the world and it's inhabitants! We are both curious and interested in any place we come across, big or small. I am also a singer (in 2 choirs currently) and certainly don't need to be asked twice to perform at karaoke 😄

We usually prefer people staying more than 1 night, just to give us some time to get to know you :)
