About Me

I like to be a tourist in my own city. That's why it's always a good time for me to show people my home city and revisit a lot of places i usually don't have much reason to go, as well show off some of its more obscure locations.

Likewise I think one of the best ways to enjoy places I travel to is with the locals who make it so great to begin with!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think one of the most valuable parts of traveling to me is all the people I meet along the way. Although couchsurfering sounded like a good way to get some local insight and save a few pennies, I know now that the real value is the friendships that come from it!

I was lucky enough to experience a culture where having an open home was the norm. It felt very right, and was a great way of connecting with people and learning so much about the world!
I would love to continue this experience by opening my home as well as visiting others.
