Overview
About Me
I live a quiet life in a hillside village 2km out of Stroud.
I worked as a GP in Bristol for 25 years but I've completely left that role behind now.
I'm vegetarian and a non-smoker.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I joined with the idea of being a guest when I travel but haven't got round to that and meanwhile it seemed fair and open-hearted to offer some of my space occasionally - I live alone in a 3-bedroom house.
Interests
I play the piano (classical) and am learning to play the guitar (not classical!).
I lead dances of universal peace - sacred dance while singing mantras from varied spiritual traditions.
I also hold a sacred chanting group in my meditation room twice a month.
I love cycling and go out on my bike every day, both for fun and as a primary means of transport.
I also like walking and have a good knowledge of wild flowers.
I meditate most days (Buddhist/Vipassana).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
