About Me

CURRENT MISSION:
I have been working at nights for 14 years in pursuit of becoming a full-fledged vampire someday. And love to travel and meet new friends in between.

Also, I am an IT professional and on my way finishing my masters degree in business (update done with my MBA).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend (Jana) referred me to someone in Paris to do Couchsurfing. This guy (Adrien) didn't even think twice to accept me as his guest and has been very kind to assist me with all I need while I do my adventures in the city. Thus, I would like to return this favor to the CS community and I am looking forward to my first guest at my humble abode.

UPDATE: I started hosting last week of March 2017 and already met and hosted more than 100 couchsurfers! Yey!
