I'm here to sleep on your couch, eat your food, drink your beer, steal your clothes and then disappear in the morning ;) okay that was a joke and I hope you have a sense of humour.

After selling or donating everything I own except for the contents of my backpack, I spent the last 9 months traveling through Europe and Asia, mostly overland. Now I'm in Russia again for the next 3 months.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Cultural or language exchange while traveling, or even just a few beers with like-minded people.

Prior to traveling I was unable to host due to sharing a house with 5 others, but when I finally settle down somewhere again I look forward to returning the favour.
