'Advertising is the cave-art of the 20th Century'

A former Ad-Man, currently in a Strategy role at that cool new startup with bean bags.

A former Toastmaster, I love Public Speaking and almost never give up a chance to address a gathering.

Coffee guzzler by day, Beer chugger by evening.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people every day has helped me gain a broader perspective about the world, and about myself.

I think CS is a great platform for meeting people from all over the world, and facilitating a rich exchange of values, cultures and experiences.

Having worked in Sales and Marketing roles throughout my 5 year career, I've met over a thousand different people and it has significantly broadened my outlook. I want to replicate this at an international level and I feel Couchsurfing is the perfect place to start! :D

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lost 14 KGs (~31 pounds) and went down from shirt size XXL to L in 10 months :D

Teach, Learn, Share

Apparently, more people fear Public Speaking than Death. I can teach you some hacks for impactful Public Speaking which could help you minimise your stage fright if you're up for that.

I could also teach you a thing or two about Marketing and Branding if your work is related to the domain.

I'd be interested in learning how to prepare a dish or two from your cuisine to expand my culinary vocabulary.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm learning how to cook and at the moment you can count on me to prepare breakfast for you if you're my host or my guest - omelette, sunny side up, French toast, egg puff, salads and some coffee that I hope's gonna blow your mind :)
