Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Having as much fun and doing as much travel as possible without failing my exams
ABOUT ME
I really hate doing these things, but i'm not an introverted person so a quick chat would do a lot better than this text box in telling you about myself.
PHILOSOPHY
"when my friends are happy, I'm happy", a friend told me this once and i like it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Though i don't currently have a couch to offer, I'm here to meet as many people in as many places as possible, take advantage of their generosity, and wait until I can do the same for other couch surfers.
Interests
Good food, and good beer. I obviously also enjoy traveling, but what I enjoy most about new places is trying a new dish. music, film, sport, art, books; all good stuff, but none can be fully enjoyed on an empty stomach.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once had to stop a snowmobile and let it sink into a couple meters of powder because my eyelashes had frozen together and I couldn't open my eyes. I was over a river at a time, which made it very stupid.
