About Me

I went to four different international schools in different countries, most of them were boarding schools, so I've had my fair share of international experiences. My parents had to travel a lot for business, and I followed them quite a lot. They taught me their idea of what a business should be like and that there is always an opportunity for you to seize, you just have to be open to see it.

I used to be into programming since middle school, but when I discovered 10 years ago how fascinating finance and credit can be, I had to give all my heart and soul to this trade. Companies allowing customers to purchase on credit face many painful challenges such as temporary cash flow shortages or bad debt write offs. Credit is a powerful tool to dramatically increase sales, yet it could be dangerous if the seller is not well-equipped to deal with receivables. I am a powerful healer helping multi-customer companies recover from their credit-giving wounds.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've heard some amazing stories from a friend of mine who's been on couchsurfing for quite some time, and the potential intrigues me.

I believe in "living-by-experiences". If you become my guest, I expect you to play out a certain role, to be a certain character (of my choosing, but can be adjusted/renegotiated before we start). It may or may not be your normal image. Unleash your inner forces and be a new you for a little while! Let's play! Life is too short.

P.S. if you luck out and become my guest for the second time, you will have to be a different character. No repeats! Variety is the salt of life.
P.S.S. Weird or inappropriate requests will be denied. I am a reasonable and respectful adult and expect the same from my guests.

Interests

I am a figure skater. It didn't start until I was 24 y.o. though. However, I am progressing fast and my coaches note that my potential is really vast.

I never tried smoking or drugs, and I've lived an alcohol-free life for the last 8 years. I found multiple sources of pleasure of different intensity in healthy ways: eating healthy food, challenging my body to reach new results in figure skating, spa procedures and life-long learning.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like reading about recent advances in neuroscience with all sorts of applications. My favourite book is "Management Rewired" by Charles Jacobs. If you majored in Business at the university/college, you must absolutely read this book, you will see how many conventional facts we study at the university were proven wrong...

My favourite tv series is "Suits".

As for music, I am not really a big fan. It's only in this loud world that we learn to appreciate silence. It relieves the pressure. It brings you peace with your thoughts and your inner self.

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Germany, Israel, Italy, Thailand, United Arab Emirates
