Aloha 👋 I am Tos, based in Glasgow, Scotland. I have lived in 5 different countries, and I have been to 60+ countries; and I really want to do the remaining 136 as well 😃.

The true highlight of my travels and excursions is meeting people from diverse backgrounds. My most extraordinary travel stories include spending a week with a nomadic family in the Sahara desert to getting some spiritual lessons from a monk in Tibet.

My interests include: travelling, podcast style conversations over a cuppa tea/coffee, watching documentaries , writing short stories, poetry, and cooking. I believe I am open-minded, chill, and easy to get along with. Lately, I have been into sufi music a lot (a kind of spiritual mystic music)

What’s next for me: Socotra island, been planning it for years now.

My mantra is that until we die, it's all part of life 😇

Note: I prefer last min stay requests as I cannot commit more than a week in advance if I will be in the town to host you.

What can I offer: I used to work as a registered massage therapist in Bali, so I can teach you about that. I also worked as a part-time chef on a Caribbean cruise, so I can definitely cook for you different cuisines :)
Note: I now live 25 mins away from Glasgow in Motherwell.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet like minded people, have interesting conversations. In the end its one of the best ways to explore a new place
