Im full of all the contradictions and hypocrisies of being human. Full of mistakes and learning.
Ive been raised on nonsense and chaos, and its addictive stuff, but I seek out solitude where I can.
I could sit and watch the world all day, up on high, on a hilltop.
I can dance for hours. In front of a booming bass bin, a phat stack or the tinny speakers of laptop, it makes little difference. I like to stay up for days. I like to chat utter rubbish and and eat chocolate. I like to stay in on my own doing nothing useful, just trawling ebay, looking for a gem. Im an expert at frittering away my own time.
I love the thrill of galloping bareback, but in truth I often lack the nerve, just as happy to plod along through the dappled sunlight.
I love to swim in the sea. Although, admittedly, Im a wuss when it comes to the silty grey-green of certain oceans, prefering crystaline blues, clear greens. Swimming out real far, so deep, yet the sea-floor ripples up at you still.
I like strong flavours: chili, ginger, garlic, turmeric, onion, lime, honey, salt, cinnamon. I love pies. I love gravy.
Im a music lover with eclectic taste.
I like the ritual of making a fine roll-up. Lighting up and cups of tea. Dunking biscuits - such dangerous games we play!
I like to binge on TV series. I like to write essays on literature.
Ordered and disorderly. Introspective and gregarious. A cynic and a romantic.
I can work like a dog, or be the very Queen of Idleness - stretched out, cat-like in a patch of sun, stuck in some reverie for hours, completely transfixed.
I want to learn to rollerskate. To become a trapeze artist. An academic. A baker of bread. A great horseman. An artist. All of these things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hopefully a good laugh. An exchange of languages maybe, or ideas. I can play backgammon. And I can cook an excellent curry, amongst other delicious dishes.
