About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I've put my travels on a hold for the moment to help build a very exciting tech startup. Update: Traveling Europe in September!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm an idealist, but at the same time a skeptic, which unfortunately tends to lead to a perpetual feeling of mild disappointment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only hosted so far so I am looking forward to having the surfing experience too. I have only had positive experiences, faith in humanity restored!

Interests

Hiking, camping, nature, photography, programming, sports, books, art-house movies, cooking (unless it's for myself only, then I will make some unspeakable things)

I am terrible at dancing and singing!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived on a tiny, volcanic island in the subantarctic, 2000km from the nearest continent, with 20 other people for a year. I was witness to breathtaking scenes of nature, experienced extreme weather and made lifelong friends.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am more than willing to help with cooking and eating, sharing stories about South Africa and Rwanda or my somewhat unconventional life story!

Countries I’ve Visited

Denmark, France, Germany, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, Netherlands, Rwanda, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, Tanzania, Thailand, Uganda, United Kingdom, United States, Zambia, Zimbabwe

Countries I’ve Lived In

South Africa
