About Me

Hi friend! I’m not really hosting a lot these days🌞 But send me a message, maybe we can work something out!

CURRENT MISSION

Freediving, working against plastic pollution in rivers at a tech company, and the never ending thirst for knowledge and wisdom in general

ABOUT ME

I love strange and beautiful things, honest people, mountain views, adrenaline.
Love being in nature. Love my corky friends in sharing music, skateboard cruising and holding our breath underwater

PHILOSOPHY

Curiosity

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The thing about couchsurfing I love the most is settling into a home! Experience over comfort.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've learned a lot from surfers all over the globe and thankful for all the unique crazy people I got to spend time with

Interests

Trees and plants and animals. Every adventure sport. Being under water.
I loved working at festivals and doing street theater (walking stilts and those kinds of shenanigans). Following bio glitter and looking for colorful shiny things.

Many kinds of music: from psychedelic pop to downtempo to classical.

Cooking vegan food, randomness, dancing around fires and basically being around people who have embraced their awkwardness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Drove 2 hours to the border of Bhutan towards the smallest tribe in India, on top of a jeep with 40 other people (in, on top and hanging onto the jeep), crossing dried out riverbeds while a lightning storm was raging above us. Then they started singing Toto songs to scare away bads spirits - pretty nice welcome into the tribe.
