About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find a ship that isn't sinking!!

ABOUT ME

I'm sick of working companies in the UK that keep going bust (hence my mission objective above)- I'd like to find a teaching job in Vienna and am looking for a place to stay for a short time while I go to interviews.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm more of the eat to live types, though not in the practical (boring) sense - I like to stay healthy so that I can do other things I'm passionate about with more vigor!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Once I get stable in Vienna, I will be interested in hosting too.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None, I'm a CouchSurfing virgin.

Interests

Politics, and satire (I love the Daily Show); History (I'm a World War 1 nut); and, when I have time, I might develop an interest in German, like I did in Taiwan with Chinese.

  • politics
  • history

Music, Movies, and Books

Aliens, Platoon, Point Break, Saving Private Ryan, The Terminator, Memento.

Sting, U2, Foo Fighters.

Lots of non-fiction - history, if and when I get time to read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ditto.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm preparing my last class here in Tianjin China at the moment, so I'll come back and share how to write a good lesson plan in a day or two when I have time!
