CURRENT MISSION

Living the dream and all that while getting lost and making friends along the way

ABOUT ME

Just finished an amazing year living as a castaway on an island in The Outer Hebrides of Scotland. Lived on a crofthouse with sheep in the garden and went bodyboarding on the most amazing beaches (see pic on the left). Travelling at the moment, hoping to finish up teaching in Nepal before trying to make it to Base Camp of Everest. Any one with good chat who fancies drinks/coffees/surfing etc en route would be made very welcome :-)

PHILOSOPHY

'Only when I'm poised on the edge of life and death do I fully appreciate the wonder of the human experience, the beauty of humanity and the spontaneous pleasure of my inner self' (Yuichiro Miura, 1st man to ski down Everest) Pretty much sums it up I reckon.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

New to this site but picked up quite a few hitch hikers while on the island last year who all ended up staying for dinner and then in our spare rooms in the croft house after we'd taken them out 'down town' and they were a little too drunk to put up their tents. They all asked whether I was on this site so thought I should finally look into it.

兴趣

Pretty much any sport, especially running/biking/skiing/bodyboarding though hoping to learn how to surf while travelling-will cook dinner in exchange for a lesson!
