In the early part of 2016 I quit my job, sold everything I own and set off on a trip that I hope will take me the rest of my life. I want to get to know the world and as many people as possible; that doesn´t mean that I want to rush around the world and collect email addresses and facebook friends. It means that I want to really live in different places and get to know others that have the same desire to explore the world.

I love music but cannot play, I love to write but don´t always find the inspiration when I have the time, I love to read and will try to make time for this every day. I´m very comfortable in the kitchen and am always happy to entertain guests or hosts.

When traveling I will usually bring along a bottle: wine, whisky or beer - never turn up empty handed! Ideally this can act as a social lubricant as we play board games/cards and get to know each other.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I´ve always been amazed by the people that you can meet when you are travelling and the crazy coinsidences that happen with these people. The world seems smaller but in a good way and your life is enriched by having met these people. I figured that being a part of this community only increases the amount of like minded people you will meet and your experiences of different places.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Honestly ditching the regular life and jumping in to the great unknown felt pretty amazing and I'm still loving it every day!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a short but impressive repertoire of jokes, know plenty of card and board games, have a huge knowledge with regards to spirits, whisky in particular and I'm an avid cook.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation and stories of the places I have visited along with a good meal and the aforementioned bottle!
