Hello travellers! ⭐️ I don’t accept requests for stays from males with no or very few references✌🏻

Please read the ‘my home’ section. If you send a request where you’ve made an effort to communicate who you are and why you think we would vibe, I will reply. If your request could be sent to anyone and is transactional I will not respond 🙏🏻 Not a hostel 😎

I am passionate about many issues, especially the liberation of oppressed people across the globe. This firmly includes LGBTQ+ people and I won’t tolerate transphobia from anyone in my home - unfortunately transphobia is especially rife in the UK right now. Also don’t come expecting me to educate you - that’s not my job, if you’re interested read ‘The Transgender Issue’ by Shon Faye. 🏳️‍⚧️

CURRENT MISSION

Chill out whenever possible! Try to achieve balance. Appreciate all the joys of the world. Do my bit to try and make the world a bit better/kinder/more caring.

ABOUT ME

I am a sociable, curious, thoughtful, silly person (so I’m told), and I also love more calm times. I’m happiest when walking up a mountain, reading a good book, doing Tai Chi, going to the cinema or theatre. dancing around with pals or hanging out with animals ❤️

PHILOSOPHY

I find this category a bit cringeworthy - I reckon peoples' personal philosophies usually spill out (at least a bit) when they meet, and that's the best way! But I do Tai Chi and am interested in Taoism.

GLASGOW

I can host, and I’m happy to meet up with travellers and show them some good bits of this wonderful city.
