Hey, I'm Dan!
Digital Project Manager / Digital Marketer with a big ambition.
Have traveled the world extensively and earned my MSc in Lisbon, Portugal.

I enjoy: Honest conversations where I get to share experiences and learn from new people about culture, history, interpersonal relations, etc. I love cooking, poetry, riding my bike, amateur photography and design, and Netflix!

I appreciate: Honesty, candidness, and 0 bullshit.

I would never: Break a promise, not follow-through, pretend I'm something that I'm not, and attempt to gain anyone's approval other than my own (;

From you I'd like: A friend with whom I would create a life-lasting memory.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think writing 'I want to see and experience the world' is a cliche that gets thrown around very often these days, but it's absolutely true in my case. I've travelled in Europe and Asia and simply couldn't get enough of each of my voyages. I love meeting people from lands far away, sharing stories, and growing with each new experience. I think Couchsurfing is perhaps the most authentic way to immerse yourself in a new culture and place, and that's exactly why I've joined this community.
