About Me

CURRENT MISSION

working out a cunning plan on how to move to sunny Spain

ABOUT ME

I guess I should tell you something about myself, no? Well, here are a few things that come to my mind...

I am your ordinary geek passionately in love with history. Since I live in a city (and a country for that matter!), which oozes history from every part of it, this is like a little piece of paradise for me.

My many interests span from my field of work, over sports (tennis and football especially), to writing, which I practice a lot, as well as reading and travelling to wherever the road takes me. I am the kind of person who always comes home because, at this point in my life, I love the comfort of it. :)

Recently, I have developed a huge liking for Spain and have started learning the melodious language of the country. My passion for languages has never been this indulged and I've grown to like Spanish so much, I wish to move to a Spanish speaking region.

PHILOSOPHY

Living one day at a time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

acting as a guide for CSers in my city

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have so far had really pleasant CS experiences and I am looking forward to meeting new people and showing them around my city and this region, maybe convincing them to share a drink with me on one of the many breathtaking beaches nearby, since unfortunately I cannot host anyone at my place at the moment.
