About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel. Live. Learn.

ABOUT ME

I like traveling and exploring, meeting new people, eating new food, and seeing new and cool nature. I studied marine science and love diving, snorkeling, and being near the water as much as possible. I take a lot of inspiration from animals (especially large ones), and many of my most treasured memories of my life so far have been interacting with non-human beings. I'm into basic photography and video-making. I travel with my drone when I can to show-off beautiful places from a bird's eye view. I'm looking for places to chill with interesting people, share a beer (or a few..) and get to know the area from locals' points of view. I like helping to cook and am an easy guest. I travel with little and do my best to leave places cleaner than when I arrived.

PHILOSOPHY

We live in a crazy world with infinite realities and possibilities. I just wanna experience all that I can to make sense of it all, while meeting cool and inspiring people, exploring nature/wildlife, and living fully and healthily. There's no better time to be alive than now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've actually only officially Couchsurfed once, in Cabo San Lucas (Mexico). But I have traveled extensively and slept on many-a-couch, floor, bathtub, etc via friends, friends of friends, and people I've met along the way. I know what it means to be a good surfer and a good host!

Teach, Learn, Share

I do my best to stay aware and up-to-date with environmental issues. So I'm always happy to talk about that. I can teach you how to write Arabic (although I don't speak it very well). There's a bunch of other random stuff in my brain - feel free to pick it!
