Overview
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.

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!
