CURRENT MISSION

To open up new doors in life, make great new friends all over the World & bring the best of other people's cultures back home to London...

ABOUT ME

I'm vivacious and love meeting people from all across the Globe. I love my home City of London as it's got a beautiful blend of action, entertainment & real cosmopolitan vibes! Despite that, I'm a people's person and really want to explore new Cities, their people & cultures. I'm not so great with new languages, but my mother tongue is pretty sharp, so if you want to know a bit of old English slang i.e. "Cup of Rosie" then I'm your man! Okay, won't ramble too much, but I like new, exciting opportunities, the arts, sports, nights out & general socialising. I'm a voiceover artist and also a part time presenter - usually for new music projects but I'm dabbling in some documentary titles at the moment too. Any questions? Hit me up!

PHILOSOPHY

Here's a few of my favourite quotes:

"Asking beguiling questions with potentially lethal consequences is something rather good to have on your coffin" D.Frost

"It's easy to make a buck, it's a lot harder to make a difference".

"If there is one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view & see things from their angle as well as your own".

"Adversity causes some men to break, others to break records".

"How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic towards the striving and tolerant of the weak & the strong. Because one day in your life, you will have been all of these"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been to a few Couch surfing meetings with my couch surfing friend here in London, so I guess I'm doing my bit by being a friendly face for everyone who's just leaped off the plane/boat/bus. I'm filling this form out because I'm thinking it's time for a role reversal and a few cultural shin digs abroad.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Definately the London bar crawl...but...since this is my only one, I'll update this with better stories when I've wracked up more airmiles :)

Interests

The human condition, Movies, travel, broadcasting, the beach, site seeing, live music of any kind, gin & tonic, beer, cocktails (if the situation demands), Formula 1, fast cars, go-karting, football (soccer), rugby...I learnt to shoot guns in the States...so...going down the shooting range was pretty tasty!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Broadcasting on the BBC for two years. It was truly amazing to give so much to hundreds of people every week. I'm a giver, not a taker, so naturally it was a pleasure to provide service on such a scale.
