ABOUT ME

I'm really easy going and always enjoy hanging out with new people, even though I'm not the loudest guy around. I'll never say no to swapping tales of travels,

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted various CSers in my time in Singapore (unfortunately I've left my account idle so haven't racked up any references! Have a look at Anya Pichugina's profile for our Singapore surfers.

No surfing experience yet but looking forward to it!

Interests

Playing guitar (badly), music, films, festivals, traveling, reading and seeing friends. I'm terrible at hunting for arty things but love to be dragged along!

Music, Movies, and Books

Books:Anything by Gabriel García Márquez, Nick Hornby, Ian McEwan or Italo Calvino... Life of Pi, Cloud Atlas, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Freakonomics (+Superfreakonomics), What the Dog Saw, and many more..

Movies:Too many to list, I'm partial to dramas, and dark comedies, enjoy action films but feel guilty about it - generally I'm easy to please in the cinema.

TV: I love anything by Aaron Sorkin, and all kinds of things from Curb Your Enthusiasm to Top Gear, How I Met Your Mother to The Wire, and a lot more inbetween.

Music:I love Radiohead (particularly In Rainbows), Elbow, Pink Floyd.. I'm listening to quite a bit of The Postal Service, MGMT, The Smiths & The Shins recently - I've definitely grown up with my parents generation of music and enjoy it alongside newer stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled from the UK to Singapore over a fantastic 6 month trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always keen to pass on what little knowledge I have, and I love to learn from everyone!
