After a long time working and living abroad I'm back in my hometown desperately trying to cram in as many foreign adventures as I can...cue Couchsurfing :) I love exploring new places and I especially love the outdoors. I like to try local foods and beers, I'm an aspiring photographer so I always try to hit the streets to get some shots of the locals, and I just decided to start a "40 Countries Before I'm 40" project, so I have a ways to go! Help me achieve it :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Everywhere I travel to, I try to stay with locals (eg HelpX) and have experiences that will allow me to feel more at home and less like a tourist. I have no idea how I haven't used Couchsurfing sooner.

Teach, Learn, Share
