Overview
About Me
I love to explore around new places, try out new things and meet strange, interesting people. For me a vacation is something new and exciting, not sipping drinks on a beachy island. That being said, I live on a beachy island... I'm torn between focusing on my dream job and explore the world. Sadly I cannot do both. I usually delay this decision by taking long trips to relatively nearby countries :) Also, I'd like to think that I am a very open-minded person and could probably talk to you about almost anything, especially if I'm drunk.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I did quite a lot of travelling; I've dodged tuktuks in chaotic India, crossed between valleys in the Himalayan mountains, worked in the tea hills of Ilam, and spent a considerable amount of time deciphering food menus and directions in China. But meeting new, interesting people on the way is what makes my travels really special, which is mostly why I'm here.
