About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The world is full of possibilities. Explore. Wander. Connect. Share. Learn. Inspire. Get lost, in order to find yourself again.

ABOUT ME

Student of life, lover of all things yummy. Wine, cigs and books. Will listen and pontificate about Existentialism and your cat. Will hike, party, chill, cook, cycle and dance at random intervals. A spiritual individual, a philosophical dork. Really, an absolute geek who will probably find your weird traits adorable. Enjoys dares, espressos and Mother Nature. Oh and music makes the world go round and round.

PHILOSOPHY

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why, of course, to experience how strange and beautiful the world is, with the good, the bad and the absurd... a wonderful puddle, a divine mess. Also to save money on accommodation. It's such a relief to be taken care of in a foreign city. I also host myself, whenever I can. Giving produces more giving.

Music, Movies, and Books

Milan Kundera. Master and Margarita. World, Soul and Funk. La Grande Bellezza and Black Mirror series.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just finished a 14-month trek from Asia back to Europe as of June 2018. Feeling super blessed that I had the opportunity to travel through Nepal, India, Central Asia, Turkey, Russia and back to Europe (2 months in each)
Ps. I convinced the Russian Special Forces to not arrest me for trespassing their naval base in Sochi.

Teach, Learn, Share

Languages, music, experiences, different kinds of cuisine, outdoors adventures, films... so many!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good times, a friend to do all kinds of things with.
