About Me

So I'm a pretty chilled out and incredibly sociable (probably due to my occupation) guy who spontaneously decided to move to the other side of the world to study and work and learn a whole bunch of different languages. I do like my alone time sometimes but can also be the one saying "Hey guys, we should totally try *....* it's a great idea". I'm also the perfect person to have around if you like to try interesting alcoholic drinks. That pretty much sums me up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well Europe is a pretty big place and while I'm looking to base myself in Cologne I'm also planning on doing numerous tours of Europe and pretty much every wine producing country in the world. If I'm sleeping on your couch you are more than welcome to join and feel incredibly sophisticated (I have people who can vouch for that).

Interests

Wine, beer, spirits (I don't actually drink as much as you might think, it's simply my chosen subject of study), hiking, surfing, skydiving, playing guitar, talking to people, cooking, eating (that's a big one), I'll try anything.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Chris Cornell, Prince, Cat Empire
Books - Pilo Family Circus, Dangerous Liaisons, pretty much anything that keeps me interested. Guilty of reading Shakespeare during high school and enjoying it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved my ass to the other side of the world with no solid plan.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about wine.
I can't think of a single thing that isn't worth learning.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Happy to share food costs, if you enjoy wine I'm happy to buy some interesting wine to share, aside from that it's mostly my life story.

Countries I’ve Visited

Croatia, Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland

Countries I’ve Lived In
