🇬🇧 Currently finding the world in London, and travelling a few times throughout the year.

ABOUT ME:
I’ve travelled the 7 continents in 365 days, and worked abroad at the Rock of Gibraltar. Currently enjoying life back in London, with some travels and remote work breaks through the year. A current goal is 5 new countries every year.

I discovered the Couchsurfing concept many years ago, and love the way it brings likeminded people together across the globe. I’ve learnt a lot from it’s cultural exchanges.

While circumstances have meant that I have not been able to host for a few years, I am glad to say that I do now have space available again. If you would like to stay, please tell me your favourite drink in the opening message.

I am also here for events, good conversation, and spontaneous evenings out.

I have an going nature and I am always curious. I work in insurance, and despite the jobs dull reputation this gives me lots of time to focus on topics across finance, climate change, and geopolitics.

I try to write and photograph a little too:

🇪🇸 🇲🇽 Ahora mismo estoy disfrutando el mundo en londres, y haciendo unos viajes cada año.

SOBRE MI:
Viajaba los 7 continentes en 365 días, y trabajaba en el peñón de Gibraltar. Ahora estoy disfrutando la vida de londres de nuevo, con viajes cuando puedo. Tengo una meta para ver 5 países nuevos cada año.

Estoy aquí por buen conversación, eventos (incluso de arte y comedia) y ócio (música en vivo, salsa, y techno). Tenho um trabajo ocupado, me gustaría hospedar cuando puedo.

Soy sencillo. Voy a disfrutar hablar sobre el mundo, finances, geopolíticas, sustentabilidad, riesgo, autoayuda… Pero de otra manera podemos cocinar la comida de nuestros países antes que jugamos Mario Kart.

Si te gustaría quedarte conmigo, me escribes tu bebida favorita en tu mensaje.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To date: some hosts, a couple of surfs, and plenty of drinks.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The world is a little bit smaller with CS. From the Canadian poets who performed in the front room of our London flat, to being taking to the hidden gems around town while I've been abroad.

兴趣

Travel, hiking, aimless wanders, food and drink from all corners of the world, live music, techno/house, photography, books, writing, late night conversation.

音乐、电影和书籍

Music: techno/house, indie/alternative, latino, rock, blues, jazz,. And it's all better live!

Books: One thing I learn from moving flat. I own too many books! Some favourite reads: Love in the time of Cholera, Americanah, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, anything by Graham Greene

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Just one? Here's three:
- Hitchhiking to Luxembourg and discovering how friendly drivers really can be
- Getting to know the locals of South America with ever less bumbling Spanish
- Walking through the emptiness of Antarctica and realising that it's anything but empty

教，学，和分享

Un oportunidad para hablar español.

I have traveled across Latin America and spent some time living in Spain, but I still have two English feet, so a good salsa teacher wouldn't go amiss. Oh, and if you can juggle - I've always felt that it's an unnecessary skill to know.

I can trade you some hidden corners of London, and more information than you'd ever care to know about insurance.
