Hi I'm Stephen, I'm an art college graduate. At this stage I'd consider myself somewhat well travelled, having hitched around parts of Europe and solo travelled parts of South East Asia.

I get on with people easily and am respectful. I believe myself to be a very open-minded individual.
I love seeing other cultures, tasting new food and making new friends.
Always looking for music as well, I love to hear the traditional music of a country. I play Guitar and I'm learning the banjo.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

For accommodation while traveling and to meet new people and make new friends. I believe meeting local people is the best way to get a sense of the place. Love to hear people's stories and perspective about life.

兴趣

Painting is my main interest, with oil paint mainly. My favourite artists are Francis Bacon , Mark Rothko and Egon Schiele. I stick to portraiture and figurative art. Of late I've been driven to photography as I don't have space to practice.

I love MMA, I jog every now and then, I go bouldering, cycling and like to hike. I also enjoy cooking, especially spicy food!
