About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm currently building my parents house and want to treat myself to trip to Europe on its completion

ABOUT ME

After 5 years of being dinned with theoretical architecture, I had to question where I was heading. 8 months of travel across India, attending earth workshops, building with my hands and meeting fellow wanderers, opened a new dimension to perceive life. Traveling opened up so much of my heart and mind, that I don't want this journey and the learning to stop. Meeting interesting people, experiencing different cultures and thoughts is always exciting.

PHILOSOPHY

Live sensibly!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is my first time on couch surfing. I'm not sure if I would always be able to host someone at my place but I would definitely like to take them around the city and offer any help.

This is my first time and I'm hoping that it is a good one!
