About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Wandering about the United States, visiting friends

ABOUT ME

I've discovered that I'm a lazy traveller - I like seeing large, epic landmarks and monuments but I'll drink coffee whenever I can and often just sit down with a book to read.

I enjoy sports - my favourites are squash and football (soccer).

Live shows are something I've grown to like. Comedy usually but I'm open to any suggestions.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to treat others as you'd like to be treated.

I'm generally easy going and laid back. I'm not fazed by most problems that come up.

When I know what I want, I like to act directly, but when the goals are unclear, I tend to drift along.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm looking forward to meeting up with people for a coffee and listening to a local's perspective and advice about their city.

Once I'm back home and settled again, I'm seriously considering offering a couch for people to crash on.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been around to a few places in the world and people get mentioning CS, and telling of their experiences.

I've had coffee with one or two CS people and it's been fun.
