About Me

I see this as an exchange , i supply accomodation , cooking facilities, shower, and i hope to get help in return , bring a bit of food and maybe few beers, cooking carrying even painting if you like:) , whatever your good at:)
I Dont Take Bookings More Than A Week In Advance...i prefer to be asked just a few days before your arrival in oban.
the house i live in has no road and is in a rural setting 1.5 miles out of town and you need to be fit to get here. i dont have a flush toilet , i have a compost toilet so can smell in warm months. also waterproofs are essential :) theirs electricity of charging things and mains water , bring sleeping bags or liners reduces the ammount of laundry i need do
. that aside....

i can say for shure i'm curious so love meeting others from all over, exchange stories

ABOUT ME

this is a difficult one, mmm well i'm a pretty easy going grounded sort of guy, dont watch telly, love reading, love being outdoors, the simple things are the best. where i live its so beautiful to be out. love cycling so go away often for the day. love going for picknicks and generaly being active. go often in my van away for the night, campings good to. i go walking in the mountains, tend to go to ones that dont have anyone on them,. any questions drop me a line.

PHILOSOPHY

ive no idea, all i know is i wouldnt do anything to anyone that i wouldnt want done to me. think i'm a pacifist

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

black bear and its cub walked out in frount of me on the trans labradour highway in canada it was first light when i was hitching from goose bay to baycomo. absolutely amazing, infact i spent 6 months and was in every province, the whole trip was view widening.

Teach, Learn, Share

if anyone needs to be shown how to fix a washing machine i'm your man, sounds a bit bizzare realy? Because I welcome folk in to my house I would hope my guests would be interested in my life and would be willing to offer help in return.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Myself , my knowledge of Scotland and its history. Help with deciding what places would make your holiday special :)
