ABOUT ME

Quick witted. Serious. Passionate about what I believe in. Berlin based for three years.

PHILOSOPHY

This bit. Blummin eck' I travelled for year. 364 days around the world. I surreally found myself caught up in the Mumbai terror attacks. I witnessed the Bangkok riots and unrest in Bolivia. I felt Latin America's raw passion. I seen generousity and beauty in Laos and landscapes unrivalled in New Zealand. I crossed paths with people who spoke 6 languages fluently and were modest with each word. I split my chin and was hospitalised on three occasions. I travelled with kind people from every corner of the planet and in professions I did not know of. On my return, my sister asked me what I learned whilst I was away. I said "I learned that I know nothing" It's time to start learning. Its time to live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In all honesty this site for me offers various strands of learning. Surfing a couch can be remarkable insight into the inner runnings of local household meeting hospitable and warm characters along the way. It can get you out of a sticky situation too! In Rio, Brasil just chilling out with Vera on Copocabana beach was wicked. We spent a few days just chilling and I soon understood the Brasilian way. Glorita opened her house in Santiago de Chile. I was shattered after travelling for 5 months and her family were beautiful. Simply meeting locals for drinks or sharing a day is great way to know what a city is all about. I have always bumped into couchsurfers all over the world. It's a great icebreaker "You're a couchsurfer! Where have you been? Did you CS there? How did you find it?" :) Lastly, CS allows you to seperate yourself from being a voyeristic tourist and provides a branch into the society you are visiting. If just only for a short time, I have felt more in tune with the heartbeat of a country when chilling with a likeminded local. Nothing beats it. Lonely Planets, maps, getting lost with gringos is fun. But it does not provide the edge in experience that CS does. Viva CS!
