Overview
About Me
Starting in June I will be traveling in my Campervan around Europe with my Couchsurfing friend Miu, from Japan...

We won't need a couch as we sleep in our campervan but we would love to spend some time and hang out with you!
In September I will be returning to the Canary Islands in Spain for the Winter and anyone is welcome to join me on that trip.
This is a Gay friendly couch but everyone is welcome.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
It seems that all the crazy souls brave enough to stay with a stranger in another country are all of the same mindset and vibration. We connect instantly in a way that others don't. That instant friendship thats greatest based on a love of adventure and a trust for humanity.
"The two most important days in your life are the day you were born, and the day you find out why." (Mark Twain)
I am a Couchsurfing Ambassador and am always happy to share my experiences of hosting over 500 travelers from forty countries and am still enthusiastic for more...

Books: I don't read much, but I don't disturb anyone who does ;)
Hahaha...there is this quote... If you have two options - choose the one that will get you in trouble!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) During The 90's I was the Creator, Organizer and Driver of the 'Midnight Express' Cannabis Smokers bus from London to Amsterdam. I have a few stories from those times :)

I was at the office of a truck company looking for a job just at the moment one of Metallica's truck drivers fell off the truck and broke his leg. I suddenly found myself part of Metallica's 2004 tour of Europe. An experience I will not soon forget.

What I Can Share with Hosts
My way of hosting:
The reason I am doing Couchsurfing is to share time, laughs, thoughts and happy moments with my guests. I'd like to get to know u, the little things that make you a unique person.
I'm not expecting any gifts but if you like wine, bring a bottle and we will share it together :)
