About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see nature at its best.

ABOUT ME

I'm a physics / maths teacher, who likes to explore new places. I enjoy the company of others, and meeting new people, and also the great outdoors.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm happy to host at my home in Durham.

Please note that I am happy to do "longer notice" surfs - just let me know when you're in the area, and I'll see if I'm free.

Interests

astronomy, music (I play several instruments), motorsport (watching, not participating!), computers, geology, walking, the great outdoors, wildswimming, geocaching.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have pretty varied tastes in music, all the way from cheesy Europop to Symphonic Metal via Classical and Rock. I like most movies, but not ones with blood and gore in them, as it's one of my phobias.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching the sun rise from (near) the top of Mount Teide in Tenerife, and camping in Iceland have to be highlights.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to share a few English folk songs, and also my love of Astronomy!

Countries I’ve Visited

Iceland, Spain
