A FEW WORDS looking to listen to and share travel stories, visiting new places with locals to learn the real place not the tourist version; friends call me bouncy when out and about with a calm side for those deep conversations :) for looking forward to meeting, chatting and laughing!
LITTLE MORE So a little about me eh... I'm an English boy who moved to France once out of education, lived on the French Riviera for nearly 10yrs now, with a few years back in Kent, UK. Love my hometown and built a strong connection to the sea because of living 2 min walk from the coast, living near Nice in France gives the same feeling along with my new home in Mougins which is in the middle of a national park :)
Travelling is a large part of my life be it heading to uk to visit family or visitng friends around europe, one of my previous jobs provided travel across europe to work with local customers which meant would visit cities much more as a local. In fact this is my favourite way to explore places, knowing where to go to chill, explore and learn or find the hidden gems.
Within my friendship group many of us are sporty, living on the cote d'azur it becomes a habit quickly - for me this is predominantly climbing mostly indoors for bouldering with weekend trips to the local outdoor sites. Winter brings a great chance to ski and summer to head out on the sea with stand up paddle boarding. All these active sports also means nice down time with yoga and meditation is a must ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Joined up as going to travel to Sweden alone and looking to meet people who can share with me cool things about their city. In return can share some of the silly stories I have about trips over Europe and America :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Sci-fi books and films are my kinda thing - that said watching a lot of anime at the moment and reading about coaching and influencing for work topics
Music really depends on my mood from electro to wake up in the morning, calm piano or chillhop to work to, then a general mix of dance, classical, rock, electro-swing to keep my ears tingling

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
