About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To realise the ultimate expression of myself, help others do the same and have a great time while doing it!

ABOUT ME

I'm a petty positive person. I'm calm patient and tolerant of other people. I take great interest in life and am always learning something new. My latest interest is neuroplasticity and all the wonderful benefits of taking charge of your brain. I'm a very physical person too. I love juggling, fire spinning, dancing, climbing, swingin around like no-one's told me im not a monkey, you name it, i love it. Except football, I'm not into that.

PHILOSOPHY

We all create our own reality. Our perceptions shape our experience of life and have a profound effect on our mental and physical well-being. With this in mind create the reality you want to live! I CHOSE to be happy, to enjoy the little things in life, to fill my day with positive interactions and let any negativity bounce off me like water off a duck's back! :) BE HAPPY!!! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At this point in time I represent the surfer rather than the wave. As I drop into your living room I will bring with me positivity, creativity and a peaceful nature. And of course gratitude and respect.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i have surfed a couch or two in my time. I've met wonderful people and experienced the nature of human kindness.

Interests

Neuroplasticity, optimal health (physical and psychological) juggling, contact staff, trees, yoga, rock climbing, veggie cooking, music, personal developement, meeting interesting and lovely people, travelling, nature and living outdoors.

Music, Movies, and Books

Something to make me bounce like a loonie, shake the earth and make the air wobble! Or something tuneful and uplifting whilst doing the washing up. Reggae is of course a staple, i love to have deep bass and conscious lyrics in my life. Just spare me the commercial cheese please! :)
I will occasionally watch a movie but they take such a long time, precious time. I would usually rather be doing something else. Unless I'm really tired or broken.
I find reading hard work but love to learn so only read books containing information I want to know. I love reading about the narrowing gap between scientific and esoteric understanding of consciousness!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked the annapurna circuit post-earthquake. Truly amazing experience, barely saw another tourist in almost three weeks. Walked God knows how many miles, gained a lot of altitude, saw some very snowy mountains and faced my fears of dying alone far from home. Most importantly I pushed on and returned from the mountains safely and successfully. Very rewarding experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to think I've acquired a fair few skills on my journey so far and I would be happy to share them with you. I can teach you to juggle, spin a staff or poi. Or even reprogram your brain! Want to learn how to cook some bangin veggie meals, then look no further. Yoga and meditation are activities I enjoy and would love to share with others. And if you happen to want dreadlocks I may have an insight or two for you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Funny stories, tastey meals, laughter and insights.
