Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To meet interesting people that make life a pleasure
ABOUT ME
I love a lot of things. A few people, all of my dogs, red wine with my dinner and of course, music. Always listening to music. Im never bored. I love to travel and of course meeting new people, thats why im here!
PHILOSOPHY
I believe that life is all about personal relationships with others. Thats what seems to make me happy anyway. Definitely dont believe in god or any of those made up stories if that's what you're getting at!
Generosity is key really.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because I believe strongly in sharing of resources as much as possible. Human society in general would benefit greatly from adopting more of a CS attitude

Music of all types. Especially good live music tho, hard to beat that. Movies, sports (tennis, gaelic football), books (Garcia Marquez, Wilde), art (Degas, Turner, Signac), cooking/eating - especially trying the cuisine of different countries
