Hi,

My name is Nik Ridley, and I am a professional consultant, trainer, and wellness coach dedicated to promoting and maintaining personal balance, business success, and sustainable living. I love life, laughter, positive people, and to experience the best that life has to offer! The bulk of my background (20-yrs.) is in the Arts (painting, performance art, and music/writing) - and I look forward to meeting you :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently promoting a mindfulness Tour and I have a limited budget, so I connecting with like-minded persons on Couchsurfing to cut costs, tour sustainably, and meet cool people along the way.

Additionally, I want to interview my hosts for their perspectives and insights (on mindfulness, personal balance, values, perspectives, etc.), to be placed on my blog. I want this experience to be interactive, natural, and FUN.

Interests

Good people. New experiences. Art & Culture. Food. Sports. Laughter. Authenticity.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like reggae (my father's side of family is from Barbados), but I have varied tastes in music. From World to Celtic to Hip Hop to Classical. The same applies to my reading tastes and movies - as long as it is engaging and moves me, I am with it. I'm a very open-minded and free-spirited person (with core values - ironic, huh).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Loved my mother dearly.

Teach, Learn, Share

I produce weekly podcasts on Mindfulness, Sustainability, and Personal success: www.nikridley.com/podcasts -OR- www.nikridley.com/blog.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my experiences, access to project engagements, great conversation and the experience to join me on this journey. I would love to also interview my hosts for their perspectives and insights, to be placed on my blog. It would really be an awesome, interactive project.
