About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet new interesting people from around the world

ABOUT ME

I am a passionate inquisitive person who like to meet interesting characters. I like to visit cities and places and see more than the standard tourist sites.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the life you have as you can not rewind and do it again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Try to give more than you receive.

It is nice to contribute in small ways. Be creative with contributions please!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted some really nice people... and some people who think my place is a hotel. Overall my experiences have been very positive and I have met some wonderful and kind people.

Interests

film, sport, culture, nature, and so much more.

  • culture
  • dining
  • sports
  • parks

Music, Movies, and Books

All kinds of music, but mainly music with some passion, some soul (although I am not a big soul music fan). I love films. Some favourites are Casablanca, Raging Bull, the Last of the Mahicans and In the Name of the Father. There is so much non fiction to read that blows your mind I do not read fiction enough. Although the Grapes of Wrath is one of my favourite books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The temples of Anka Wot in Cambodia, an amazing sand dune within a jungle in the North of Colombia, the North West of the United States and the national parks in particular and the North of Canada.

Teach, Learn, Share

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Colombia, Egypt, France, Italy, Jordan, Morocco, Oman
