About Me

Entrepreneur and Photographer.

I'm intrigued & fascinated by new cultures, to see how people live their lives around different parts of the world & to find areas of common interest; it's kind of magical when you find common ground with someone from a totally different part of the planet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like going to places & discovering them from the eyes of the people who're living there; it makes the experience personal & shows you the real face of a city.

Couchsurfing has allowed me to meet & form connections with like-minded individuals from diverse cultures around the world. It's a very special community & I'm thankful for all the experiences it's allowed me to have.
