CURRENT MISSION

"Mission" is a bit concrete for anything I got. To be avoided really.

ABOUT ME

Journalist based in Juba, south Sudan.

Tend to enjoy the simple pleasures in life - pondering, conversing, exploring, trying something new, connecting, and (mostly) moving on.

I'm always down for a good conversation, especially with fellow victims of restless feet and wandering minds. If you swing my way, let me know.

PHILOSOPHY

This is probably worth a chat or two..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed around New England, hosted in Nairobi, dabbled in it in Athens, and try to make due in South Sudan

Interests

Interesting people. Hard-forged perspectives. Existence.
