About Me

ABOUT ME

Not much to say, a bit boring at times, don't go out that much, enjoy riding my bike and visiting slums and talking to the locals (badly, as I'm terrible at hindi)... I respect other peoples things and expect them to respect mine!!! Most of my time is spent helping the kids...

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world when I get chance... Not looking too likely though

PHILOSOPHY

Treat people how you expect to be treated yourself. Help those who can't help themselves and generally be a good person - God I sound flowery! :os

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf a little and Host more, not done it for a while but thought I'd give it a go again... :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had a lots of CS'ers staying at mine and so far so good, I have also surfed a few places which allowed me to get out and about and, again, all good experiences. So all in all, Couch surfing Rocks! :)

Interests

Travel, flying traction kites (although never have time), skiing, would love to sky dive but tight with my money (both things don't go together really!), although grown out of it a little, I love skating, was very good at one stage...

  • flying
  • traveling
  • cycling

Music, Movies, and Books

Love films and music... Never can be bothered with books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Done a few things I'm proud of, although it wouldn't compare to even a normal day to a doctor.... But I feel thankful I've done it...

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't think I could teach but I know a fair bit about starting a charity in India... The first thing I would tell any non Indian is don't! - It's a nightmare.. :oD If you do, you'll soon learn what I mean...

Countries I’ve Visited
