One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked the Camino de Santiago de Compostola, all the way from Vezelay in 2012... It's when and where I decided to leave the old country for good. Even after over half a decade on the road this is still one of my most treasured voyages.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can definitely teach you a thing or two about travelling cheap and lying your way through customs anywhere with the help of some very basic photoshopping :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd be more than happy to cook for you if you invite me into your home.
