I'm an optimistic guy who is trying a new path in life: location-independent entrepreneurship. This is a growing movement where people run businesses using a laptop, working out of coffee shops and shared-office spaces while travelling the world.
I love hearing new music, exploring the great outdoors, learning and discussing philosophy and history. I play a reasonably strong game of chess, and I also enjoy card games and board games.
In my late 20's, I still enjoy a drink but am more of a 2 or 3 drink type these days, so the next day doesn't go to waste. Love karaoke and dancing :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently in Germany, absorbing the amazing history and architecture found here, practicing the language while also attempting to get a new business venture off the ground.
My German is really basic at the moment, but I would love to meet some people who I can speak with so to improve. I've found Germans generally have very good English, but maybe I can help you perfect it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last year my father and I went to Vietnam, bought two cheap motorbikes and drove them from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi - an epic 5-week journey which saw us navigate a crazy country in the adventure of a lifetime. The food, the scenery, the people, the challenges, all of it amazing. Can't wait to tell you more!
