ABOUT ME

I have two eyes a nose a mouth and three ears.
Oh, omit the last bit.
I a large guy, I mean tall, weighing in at about, well currently, 15st. But that's mainly because I'm physically quite largely built. I'm not fat, that's completely wrong, I'm just dense, that's all.
I mean, not that I'm stupid or anything, I just have.....oh forget it!

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is a combination of Voltaire and Jesus, I believe.
"I abhor what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it".
and "Treat your neighbour, as if he were thyself." Although that may have been from the book of John.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Local stuff, have done some German exchanges in the past, although now I'd prefer to stick to English speaking areas as there's a certain security that goes with it, although it did help a lot to communicate via bodylanguage, paralinguistics and large gestures.

Interests

Travelling, obviously, then there's sports, all kindsa sports, mainly athletics, weightlifting, bit'a badminton, swimming and the like.

Music, Movies, and Books

Recently been haunted by "being John Malkovich", and gone on a John cusack film spree, love any great escapist fiction novels. Music, wow, so open a description- loads of great groups out there, but most recently I've been listening to Philip Glass scores, Juno Reactor albums and most recently Leftfield.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one? Um......ok, I 'spose one of the amazing things I've seen is the, or are the alps at night. All those little lights twinkling up in the mountain tops and the silent gigantic mountains surrounding you is always amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a large knowledge of dietry supplements, routines, workouts, and athletic sessions. As I do coaching (not like, real professional type like), in my area as well as train with the local athletics squad, I have a lot to offer [FREE of charge] in terms of advice about diet and all of the forementioned topics.
