About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hitchhiking to Cape Town in time for AfrikaBurn

ABOUT ME

I'm 25 years old and have just embarked on a trip that will last at least a couple of years. My frıend Daniel was born in Tonga in the South Pacıfıc and we are travelling there together without flying. We hitchhike and we sleep in our tents. We throw ourselves into whatever experiences we find. We like to party hard but we also spend long periods camping ın the woods with nothing but the nature around us and we like that too!

PHILOSOPHY

I study philosophy at uni so I've got a bit too much to say about this! Basically I believe that the objective of all people is and should be happiness and that happiness is achieved through compassion towards others and yourself. I think the way to make your life happy and fruitful and to be a moral person is just to approach others without prejudging them and to be empathetic to their situation and compassionate about their wellbeing. Not as easy as it sounds!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Me and my friends live in 2 separate houses opposite each other and between the 2 houses we've done quite a lot of hosting. Sadly they've usually ended up staying at the other house not mine but I've met a load of nice people so it's all good! I've been surfing myself in the Czech republic and had a really positive experience, especially in Brno.

Interests

discussing things, debating things, dreaming up artworks I lack the ability to create, listening to music, meeting people, free spaces free raves free people, cooking, thinking, probably loads more things i've temporarily forgotten...
