Hello, I’m Daniel, a nomadic freelance journalist from the US.

My current job is writing about travel destinations for a company called Travel Awaits, but I am way more passionate about politics, travel, history, and philosophy, which I write about on my website: www.wherethewindgoes.com

Living this type of nomadic lifestyle is great because it gives me an opportunity to learn about different cultures and ways of living. I love hearing other people’s perspectives about politics and philosophy and how their experiences brought them to those beliefs and positions. I try and remain as open-minded as possible without having my brains fall out.

I’m also a pretty low-maintenance person and don’t mind sleeping on your balcony if you have one.

Ask me about the connection between Karl Marx and Abraham Lincoln!

For some reason, Couchsurfing never responded to verify my ID, so I will be happy to send you a picture of my passport.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because of the altruistic nature of it all. I like that it’s about helping others in time of need and making new friends.

音乐、电影和书籍

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Interviewed the Bosnian Minister of Defense.

Interviewed a Kurdish Peshmerga Commander.

Took a balloon tour in Cappadocia, Turkey.

Was a professional MMA fighter for three years, competing nine times and twice as an amateur.

Spent several seconds in icy lake water in Finland after a few minutes in a sauna that reaches 120 Celsius. I tried to stay longer but that was enough for me!

Traveled to Transnistria, the country that doesn’t exist.

教，学，和分享

I can teach a lot about nutrition and how to get in shape just by working out in a small space at the house or apartment.

I can also teach some basic boxing, kickboxing, and jiu jitsu skills that may spark a new interest for you.

I would love to hear your thoughts about the world. We will have some pretty good conversations if you’re into media and propaganda, geopolitics, power dynamics, and political philosophy. I can talk for hours about those topics.
