I'm a graphic and web designer, medieval re-enactor, gamer. I can seem a bit reserved a first, because I usually try to get a better understanding of most situations before really getting involved. Once I'm over that I can be very enthousiastic about things that interest me.

I'm looking to expand my horizons and experience other cultures, societies, customs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From a practical point, to cut travel costs, but most importantly to experience a more personal and authentic stay in the country I'm in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Breached a castle gate as the besieger and knocked away an arrow that was coming towards me. True story.
