Overview
About Me
An upbeat culture/ancient history geek, a party-loving 80's/90's freak, an adventure enthusiast and a bit of a sarcastic storyteller.
I work with IT, but every now and then I sing in my band obSEXion, play retro stuff as a local party DJ and host some events. I'm also a complete sucker for a fun night at a bar having a few drinks with friends!
I'm an advocate of open-mindedness and absolutely love getting to know new places, customs and cultures.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Got to know it through local host friends. The awesome experiences with their guests were quite the incentive! :)
