CURRENT MISSION

To explore life and, to see what I can make of myself and the world around me. My mission is to be positive and be like a helium filled balloon-always trying to climb higher.

ABOUT ME

I'm outgoing, adventurous and love to have a laugh. I enjoy meeting new and exciting like minded people, who will try new things.
I'm easy to get a long with and I don't take life too seriously.
I'm also a genuine, down to earth bloke, who cares for anyone, who will spare me time.

PHILOSOPHY

Always be grateful for what you have. Do not take life too seriously; enjoy it and love those that love you.
Always move onwards and upwards and better yourself in any way you can.
An achievement is an achievement-no matter how small it is.
Try to keep your mind broad and your ears open. You never know what other people can teach you unless you listen to them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For my age, I would say I am wise beyond my years. I have seen things that many others in my position in life haven't. I do not take my life for granted and I have great respect for those who go out and live life to the max.
I crave knowledge and excitement, and want to give it back in return.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have only couch surfed once; that was in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia

Interests

Love to read, bike ride, have a keen interest in SCUBA diving, keeping fit and various other forms of physical activities.
I will basically read anything that I think is interesting, and I like conversing with like- minded individuals.

• music
• cycling
• scuba diving
• sailing
• travelling
• gym

Music, Movies, and Books

I love a broad spectrum of music, but I especially love listening to a lot of rock and dance music. Same thing applies to my book preference. Will read all sorts. I've started to read more autobiographies now though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For five and a half years of my life, I spent it as a soldier in the British Army.
Some of the most amazing people and places I went to, were in the Army.
I went to Helmand province in Afghanistan twice, and it was here that changed me most as an individual. Coming back from here put my whole life into perspective and made me appreciate life so much more.

I have also been to (in no particular order), Alberta, Canada,
Akrotiri, Cyprus,
Kuwait city
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Ypres, Belgium,
Benidorm, Spain,
Faliraki, Rhodes, Greece
All over Australia
Five different islands in the Philippines,
Yeosu, Ansan, Seoul, South Korea
Hi Chi Minh city, Vietnam

Teach, Learn, Share

I know how to SCUBA dive and I've dived in the UK, Australia and the Phillipines! I can teach you the basics of it, if you so wish! I also know rudimentary Korean so if you want to learn some, let me know! Finally, I'm big on health and fitness so I can recommend effective exercises and the correct diet to have!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Companionship, friendship, anything but a sailing ship! I'm a great listener and love to hear about how others have lived their lives. I've also been told that I'm a genuine, down to earth guy with a good sense of humour! As they say, laughter is the music of the soul!
