About Me

Life adventures are just around the corner, all opportunities coming your way!!
Been living and working in Kigali, Rwanda for the past two years, enjoying the most of this peaceful and safe country.

Easy going and good chatter, very open minded and respectful of others.
I enjoy hiking, cooking, crafting and dancing - that should have at least one thing in common right ?

Before all appreciate one's hospitality and like chatting over a good meal if the opportunity makes it.

COVID related: 2nd dose of Pfizer vaccine received on 5th April 2021 - obviously happy to share the certificate as proof if anyone wants to let me us their couch.

Also if you still think Rwanda is what is during 1994 - please kindly message me so I can send you a few sources to show you how this country has accomplished amazing things against all odds. Safest and cleanest country in Africa. Please don't be reluctant to it :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Would like to enjoy a little bit of time in my home continent. Been leaving outside mainland Europe for 6 years now and looking to hit the road like the good old times and seeing places I did not have the chance to see before. I used to always be on the move and not always have time to plan too much ahead so it's nice to meet people through this who can hopefully share momeries and stories!

Interests

I like simple things in life such as cycling, walking, trying new things (recently tried climbing and surfing!) I also enjoy nail painting. Hope to develop more arts and craft skills when settled in Kigali.

  • dancing
  • cycling
  • hiking
  • slackline
  • nail art
  • craft

Music, Movies, and Books

Mood swings make me change favorite artist by the day!
Also life is so fast - have you tried Blinkest? Big fan of Podcasts too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mount Batou Bali 2 am trek to watch the sunrise from the top of the crater in 2015 and most recently, one week of surfing in Ericeira, Portugal.
Recent update - Mt Kenya at just 5,000m shy over Christmas 2020 - amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd be happy to help people out with their French if they're learning it or if they just tend to forget it after years unpracticed. In the other way, I would love to learn Swahili and Spanish or refresh my German.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a genuine person and believe there is no specific limit to what I can bring to the experience. I'm very open-minded and believe most of the experience will be based around how well we bond and how interested we are in one another's stories to tell and share.
