CURRENT MISSION

Travel and experience. I want to open a restaurant/cafe/bar of some sort, somewhere beautiful and warm.

ABOUT ME

I'm addicted to travel. I've spent the majority of my life since graduating from university in 2004 trying to see as much of the world as possible. Over time, my wanderlust has only increased in intensity. Insatiable, I have become.

PHILOSOPHY

There is no time but now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm still exploring the possibilities of this platform. I have not offered my own apartment to others yet. I'm hoping to use this to meet some like-minded individuals and learn about them, and the places they live.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am a veteran of international travel, but as I just mentioned, I'm new to this method.

Interests

Fine or exotic food and drink. Travel to remote, forbidden places. Tropical weather.

Music, Movies, and Books

BOOKS

The Unbearable Lightness of Being - Milan Kundera

Anything with a lively beat to dance to.
