CURRENT MISSION

Writing 'Hammer Time' on a Stop sign

ABOUT ME

I like to think I'll live long enough to see everything there is to see in the world. Sometimes I'm a creature with childlike excitement. I love listening to music and dancing to it. I try to come up with crazy things to do every now and then and science and random facts keep my juices flowing.

I like to pass my time partying, longboarding, snowboarding, dancing and when time comes around, studying. Or surfing. Or DJing. Or travelling of course! It's whatever!

PHILOSOPHY

Love and be loved.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a layover in Abu Dhabi and met up with Omar. He drove me around the city and took me out to eat the most amazing food I have probably had in my life (falafel, traditional lamb stew with rice and yoghurt). We met up with some more friends of him and listened to the daily praying song outside as the sun set over the sea. I learned a lot of things about the UAE and made a friend I hope to see again sometime!
