About Me

ABOUT ME

Originally from Malta in the Mediterranean, but have lived in London, Barcelona, Japan and Ireland , after spending my early years in Kent in England. very friendly, interesting, open minded, not good at telling jokes, I've recently finished working and have been a loving family man for the last 20 years(I have a 20 year old daughter and a 16 year old son) and now want to get back to getting out there , travelling and meeting people.
I am really looking forward to travelling to Australia for the first time to watch cricket and get as much of the culture that I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love being with people in their natural habitat, I don't like hotels, where you feel a stranger.
When I lived in London, I used to meet and invite strangers to come and stay with me and make them feel at home. I loved those opportunities to share our cultures, experiences and dreams.
When I travelled through Africa long before 'Couchsurfing ' was invented, I stayed with people all the time , all through Africa for 9 months. That they always wanted to learn as much about me as possible, as well as me about them(there was no internet, mobile phones).

Interests

love meeting new people, capturing the moment, listening to live music, watching cricket, reading everything and anything

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Good things come to those who live.
Don't wait to do all the things you want to do.
Don't wait to say the things you want to say.
Soon you will be surprised how short life is.
