Hey I'm Nick! I wake up each day curious and eager to learn and see new things. While I do work full time now, I always make time each year to experience new cultures around the world. I am approachable, organized and open minded and love to capture my adventures through photography.

What I'm looking for during a stay is to talk about your life experiences and what makes you love the country you call home. I love traveling to observe different ways of living and linking the culture of people with the norms within that country.

Looking forward to connecting and creating unforgettable experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in exploring how people live different lifestyles and adopt different cultural norms around the world.

Board games are a big part of my friendship circle at home so I like to learn local games in the different countries that I travel to. Some of which I bring back home with me.

Interests

I have a mixed set of interests and I find a lot of topics interesting which probably explains why in always connecting with strangers

• photography
• cooking
• reading
• podcasts
• film
• healthy lifestyle

Music, Movies, and Books

Many business, psychology and science books. I don't really read fiction novels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing the tallest mountain in Indonesia completely unprepared in a tshirt and shorts. Unsurprisingly I got altitude sickness and mild hypothermia but live to tell the tale and got a panoramic photo from the top of the mountain!
