Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'm on a big trip through Asia and South America
ABOUT ME
Way back in March 2012 I said goodbye of a life full of traffic jams and working days. A life with a black station car and a business suit. A life completely different from what I do now. Travelling. And it's not a job, it's not hard but it's rewarding as anything can be. It is my life at the moment and I love it.
Some of my best experiences on this trip have been with locals. Some I met in the train, others in a restaurant and some through CS. And these locals definitely changed my trip. They made me love their country even more.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe getting old is not about stretching life for as many years as possible. It is about having as many experiences as possible. Good experiences. Time works different in our mind and if we want to live a long and happy life we should go for experiences.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Right now I'm travelling. When I'm back home I'll pump up my Aerobed for you!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I went couchsurfing a few times.
Interests
I love to talk. Sometimes a lot, sometimes a little. I love extreme sports, especially if they are dangerous. Reading. Drinking a beer. You tell me something random, I will come and see if I like it. Chances are I probably will!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've been trekking in the Nepalese Himalaya for 21 days. I've been in many places, from Las Vegas to Sri Lanka. Every place is unique!
I went to Antarctica and the Galapagos, I have been diving with hammer head sharks, I lived in Bolivia for a year and I have seen a lot of Bolivian hospitals after I crashed a paraglide!
