About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Love to meet interesting people and find it a pleasure to help others.

ABOUT ME

Born in Sri Lanka, brought up in England, French national, living in Dubai for nearly 30 years !

Extensively travelled, self-employed person who shuttles between London-Dubai-Colombo quite regularly for business and personal reasons.

Open-minded, spiritual, kind, gentleman is how some would describe me.

Good sense of humour, easy to get along with, young at heart are some of the other positive traits.

Look and feel much younger than my age ...... school buses still stop to pick me up when I am on the roadside !

PHILOSOPHY

"Do unto others as you would have done unto you"

"The world is but one country, and mankind it's citizens"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Strongly believe humans are very social animals.

Love the company of good people around me for fun and knowledge/experience transfer.

Believe we can all play a part to make this world a better place and that unity in diversity is the cornerstone of peace on earth.

If that's too serious, then I am up for a good chat and a laugh !
