I am a 25 year old web developer. After graduating in 2017 I have lived 1 year in Stockholm 🇸🇪and then 2 years in Cape Town 🇿🇦. I am currently between contracts and have made no plans yet regarding my future job, though I think I would like to keep working abroad. But I haven't decided exactly where.

As I am not in a hurry to find a new contract, I would like to travel a bit. My ideal plan would be Corsica, Sardinia, Sicily, mainland Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Albania, Greece, Bulgaria, Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Iran, Irag, Syria, Lebanon. This is quite ambitious and I'm not sure how much Covid will allow me to travel but that would be my ultimate Europe trip. I have 6 months to do as much as I can. Even 1/3 of it would already be fantastic so I'll see where I end up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing mainly to travel for now as I am currently back living at my parents place. I am still a beginner but Couchsurfing seems like a great place to meet likeminded people abroad, and also people with vastly different experiences and backgrounds.
