About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Currently cycling from England to South Africe with my girlfriend, Maya!

ABOUT ME

I'm a dreamer, an adventurer, an armchair traveller.
I enjoy running, walking, talking. Climbing, cycling and listening. And Yorkshire tea.

PHILOSOPHY

An adventure is simply a positive perspective on an inconvenience. An inconvenience is an adventure not properly realised.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've done some couchsurfing during my various travels, I'm currently hosting in Leeds, and I occasionally attend local CS events and meetups.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed across Europe, and am occasionally active in the CS community in Leeds, England.

Interests

I'm interested in reading every good book, learning every worthwhile skill, and meeting every interesting person, and absorbing something from the amazing world around me!

  • books
  • running
  • walking
  • reading
  • cycling
  • adventure races
  • rock climbing

Music, Movies, and Books

I love spaghetti westerns, Bond films and Good Will Hunting.

Different music for different occasions. I'm something of a classic rock man, but I'm going through a jazz phase at the moment!

I love reading, especially Ernest Hemingway, F Scott Fitzgerald and George Orwell.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled from England to India!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching is like preaching, learning seems to be synonymous with earning, while sharing only comes from caring. The most valuable gift is time, and I'm willing to share it.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Iran, Ireland, Italy, Monaco, Montenegro, Pakistan, Serbia, Slovakia, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States, Vatican City State
