About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be a good couchsurfer even if I'm staying in the local Hilton

ABOUT ME

I hope if you meet me you will find someone who is friendly, accessible, interested in what's going on in the world around us. From the very first trips abroad as a teenager I always loved meeting and staying friends with people I met on those holidays. I came to Prague from London 15 years ago. Some people think I do interesting work, but its business; do please visit my website, but I hope you won't think of me as a "businessman"

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you'd wish them to treat you. A "businessman" can still have a soul. When people travel and meet, they create better mutual understanding, and the world becomes a better place. If you don't believe me, visit Alsace and reflect on its history.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new to it, and taking it step by step. I realised that I love showing people 'my' Prague, and helping them enjoy it, and when i travel on business I always wish I could stay longer and connect with the place and people. I'd like to see if this is a good way to do more of those things.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet, but summer is coming...

Interests

People! Cycling. Travel, especially by train. Local food and drink. Football. Politics, current affairs. People, how they are, how they live.

  • history

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - rock, but mellowing into jazz and blues, especially live. Thoughtful European and world film, including Czech.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taking part in a citizens' democratic process, and seeing it really work. A story of football, politics, advertising, and a triumph for ordinary people. You might or might not find it interesting!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a lifelong marketing person. Maybe at some stage I can use this to help somebody.
