About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live life, meet new people, bouldering and experiencing live music.

ABOUT ME

I've always had a taste for travelling, spending two years in London while I traveled Europe and doing exchange programs. Although I've enjoyed the sights and sounds, it's always about the different types of people I've met along the way that I appreciate most!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is about balance, but you must experience the extremes to appreciate the middle!

Tourists don't know where they've been, travellers don't where they are going.

Being a realist is pessimism based on statistics about a future that no one really knows.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It first started with a friend who dragged me to an "official" couch surfing experiences with a CS veteran in amsterdam, who organised local events and showed us the meaning of CS. I also attended a few of CS meetings in london so far enjoyed them thoroughly! It helped remind me of the international community I'm apart of and why I started to travel in the first place!

Interests

All music especially live and acoustic, world music and cinema.

Camping, Hiking, scrambling, rock climbing and rafting. Talking around a camp fire.

Love food and always up for exotic tastes but whiskey, earl grey tea and salt & pepper squid is my weakness.

I also find american politics pretty interesting as well as economics,psychology & philosophy too.
