About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Become an innovator, world traveller and creator.

ABOUT ME

I was born in nigeria, raised in London and educated in America. I am a product developer currently living between Nigeria, London and China and I am 23. A tad bit OCD and always looking to be on an adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

Change starts from the individual, not from a popular cause or from group protests. Start where you can with what you have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I give people the opportunity to sleep on my couch for free. Not sure what else couch surfing is about honestly. Maybe someone can prove me wrong and show me other sides of this social experiment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Sadly I haven't couch surfed. I attempted it once but didn't get a response. honestly I always stick to hotels even before i joined couch surfing. I am a germophobe and can't trust anything but a serviced room. Maybe i will make the leap of faith in Asia.

Interests

I am a big design buff. So I can talk about da Vinci, Frank lloyd wright and Steve jobs for days.

  • design
  • technology
  • surfing
  • mountains

Music, Movies, and Books

V for vendetta has to be my favorite movie, a great combo of anarchy and wordplay.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went up to a temple in Hong Kong, that housed monks. The journey through the mountains was amazing and I felt so at peace watching these people live without any kind of modern technology.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want teach people about the pitfalls of discrimination and stereotyping. It's a touchy subject for most but as a person of colour in the diaspora people judge me before they speak to me and that is horrible. As humans we can only new things when we break our comfort zones. So don't be afraid to share radicle ideas with me, I don't have to agree with you but I like a good debate.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Anything within my power.

Countries I’ve Visited

China, France, Germany, Sweden, United Arab Emirates, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
