Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Meet people, learn stuff, get inspired and experience as much food culture as possible
ABOUT ME
I am a cook, by trade, and a fanatical eater. Recently I have been trying to carve out a lifestyle where I can travel, cook and eat in places where there is an intensive, traditional food culture. Apart from that I would like to try my hand at anything. Wanderlust sums it up. I like to learn about anything and everyone! Meeting people, talking, sharing experiences, trading skills and exploring makes me happy.
PHILOSOPHY
The limits of life are limits of the imagination. Look after eachother.
Don't be an asshole.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
General bonding...It's fun to chat, share, have adventures, get wasted, cook, philosophise, try something new, acquire skills, dance terribly or participate in karaoke when the opportunity arises.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Officially through this website it's mostly surfing so far as I am not very settled down but have hosted and surfed many friends and friends of friends that all just become family. It's been so much fun hanging out with local interesting people. Loving it!
