ABOUT ME

I'm Swiss, but moved to Glasgow in 2007 and lived there until January 2013.

Travelling in West Africa and India, then around Canada and the US and Central America until December 2014.

Currently back in Switzerland

PHILOSOPHY

It's always better on holiday, that's why we only work when we need the money.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Me and three friends couchsurfed 3 nights in Amsterdam and 7 nights in Paris in July 2007. Great fun.
When I first moved to Glasgow I was couchsurfing, which was a good way to settle in a new city.

The last few years I've mostly hosted/stayed with friends and family.

10 days couchsurfing trip in Portugal in Oct/Nov 2012, great way to see a country where I didn't really know anyone.

Since January 2013, I've been travelling, and couchsurfing whenever possible in various parts of the world.
