CURRENT MISSION

Have fun, meet new friends

ABOUT ME

I'm a PhD student who loves to sport and taste beers when not busy with my research. I have diverse interests and like to talk and discuss everything from art and music to science and politics. Considering sports, I always like to try something new, but stick to martial arts/cycling/running nowadays.

PHILOSOPHY

No worries, mate!

Your World Won't Change While You Sleep

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mainly using the site for surfing and the occasional hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One couchsurfer at my place in Rotterdam, we had a very fun night and I thought that it was a very good way to really see something of the city and not only the touristic surface, so decided to try it myself. So far surfed couches in Canada (Quebec, Calgary, Vancouver) and made couchsurfing friends in New York. I recently hosted some couchsurfers at our place in Sydney. At the moment my family is staying at our place, so no spare couch for couchsurfing unfortunately
