CURRENT MISSION

To nourish my body & mind. I strive to keep learning and playing. The addition of our daughter has certainly enabled that!

ABOUT ME

I like to experience things, doing the things that locals do. I travel a great deal, as I really enjoy meeting people and seeing new things. I was at a friends wedding in Australia where I was the sofa dude on two of my friends couches. This made the trip both affordable and possible.

This is what I did last Sunday http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xISDuGNTBo

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you would like to be treated.

Live life like its your only one!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I get involved! Or as the Brits say "get amongst it"!
I have met people through CS a lot when I was living in Poland recently, it was nice to meet for a tea and a natter! Then staying with folks in England, Colorado and evening Morocco!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was the sofa dude in Tahoe California for about a month. I was taken in by friends of friends and complete randoms. I had a great time, although I did hurt myself badly (fractured my back) which made it a bit difficult and painful, but still wonderful- I love California!

Australia most recently in Melbourne for my mates wedding. Had a dude from California come to stay in my spare room a few months back, but all quiet for now.

More often I stay with with a family in the town where my mother lives so I can visit her.
