About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Betaentrepreneur.

ABOUT ME

Work in the aerospace industry. I make sure planes fly on time. But I'm always looking for the next excuse to travel! :)

PHILOSOPHY

Well, i guess this phrase kind of sticks in my mind..

'Experience is a hard teacher, It gives you the test first and the lessons later'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to know you! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was hosted by so many different people in Europe that I think it is only right that I should pay it back.. Well, the majority if people who couchsurfed with me were mostly germans because i was trying to improve my german with them... not because I am nationalist! or pro german! But there were people from other parts of the world too! and I hope that one day! I will be able to say that I have couchsurfed or hosted with at least one person from a particular country in a particular spot of the world... :)

And believe it or not, I was in Europe for 7 weeks and had couches in every single country! No doubt, some places were easier to get than others and that there were a pretty few close calls but I am glad that it all turn out fine! Man, I love couchsurfing! :D:D

Interests

Hmm, physical hobbies would be Muay Thai and reading.

I really really want to know how to surf :)
