I'm a married father of three young boys. I was born and raised in England but have spent a year in Germany, and the last 5 years dwelling in various parts of Pakistan. Life has had its challenges but God has been continually faithful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's been an awesome way to meet new people and gain a deeper perspective of the places I visit.

Interests

There's joy to be found in so many aspects of life. I enjoy the great outdoors, to be lost in creation in all its glory, to forage for food and return to some simplicity. I enjoy visiting new places, observing fresh landscapes and feeling the thrill of the unknown. Yet wherever I find myself my heart is always drawn back to the people that reside there. Their surprising stories and intricate lives never fail to fascinate.

Christianty surely has some place in all the above, for it is not a mere addition to my life but defines my very identity. Christ, in no exaggerated terms, changed my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I came face to face with a Leopard whilst hunting mushrooms!

Teach, Learn, Share

We recently built our own house from earthen bags, with no previous experience. I have some knowledge regarding alternate methods of building.

Whilst in the UK we converted a van into a home that we lived in for almost 2 years. If you're considering van life and doing a similar conversion I can advise.

I'm a student of the Bible and am more than happy to attempt to answer any questions you may have and share what knowledge I have. I also have an interest in understanding alternate worldviews in a deeper way.

I'm currently learning Urdu and am able to teach English.

I can play and teach some basic keyboard/piano.
