CURRENT MISSION

Continue to seek experiences abroad and connect with fellow, like-minded travelers.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy traveling the world and interacting with the many different people that constitute it. I enjoy trying new foods and local beers. I enjoy the peacefulness of long flights and the thrill of arriving at a new destination, especially at night. There is nothing I love more during my travels than spending time getting to know local families whether it's a weekend homestay or a seafood barbeque on the beach. I enjoy challenging myself to new things such as a marathon or rock climbing up a mountain. Our world is beautiful and I'm always jumping at opportunities to explore different parts of it.

PHILOSOPHY

Work hard, play hard.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I mainly do a lot of surfing whenever I can during my travels. They have all been excellent experiences so far and I still keep in touch with most of the people I've surfed with/hosted. Besides that, I try to join events with the local chapter.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I thoroughly enjoyed my first CS experience while traveling in Brazil with my friend (July 2013). We stayed in locations in Rio de Janeiro and Salvador da Bahia, both of which were memorable experiences. I look forward to connecting with more couchsurfers during my future travels. I've hosted surfers at my place in Makati, Philippines and also couchsurfed in Taiwan, which was absolutely incredible!

Musik, Filme und Bücher

The Royal Road to Romance. This is my favorite book of all times. It has directly influenced how I travel today.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I have seen many amazing things in my lifetime, but I would have to say seeing Machu Picchu for the first time after the rain clouds unveiled it was an incredible experience.
