About Me

ABOUT ME
I'm an easygoing person without making any demands (that's one of the reasons why I've been living in Samoa). I love to have good company, one or two beers and just enjoy time. What I learned during traveling is, that nobody can take your memories away. Money is replaceable. What I really hate are tourists which rush from place to place, make some shots and don't enjoy this beautiful world.

Scuba diving is my passion! Once I descended I can forget the rest of the world. I feel so free and enjoy every second under water. And I always compare diving with pizza: even if it's shit it's still soooo good! It's very important to me to protect the ocean so I always say to my divers: "all what we take are photos and memories and all what we leave are bubbles!"

PHILOSOPHY
moving is living

live your life by a compass - not by a clock

in the end we only regret the chances we didn't take

whatever's good for your soul ... do that!

the journey - not the arrival matters

I always wonder why birds choose to stay in the same place when they can fly anywhere on earth.
then I ask myself the same question.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Not because of saving money. I'm using CS as a network because I'd like to meet new interesting people all over the world and I don't want to see the country like an ordinary tourist would. I also love to show around some other travelers in my beautiful country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've thrown a ball and my cat brought it back.

Met a lady in a facebook group called "Girls that scuba" and stayed in her motorhome for a week and enjoyed diving.

Living the real samoan life (coming back from work and open 50 coconuts for the pigs).

Jumped out of a plane in 15.000ft.

Surrounded the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to learn surfing, but I can teach you how to make friendship braceletts (for your cat).
