About Me

In a nutshell: 6'2 Eurasian who likes exploring, meeting new people and random adventures! Open-minded and easy going, I do a lot of self-development so I'm into fitness, meditation and challenges. Spent 6 months training in Shaolin Kung Fu up in the mountains, 3 months practicing mindfulness in Nepal as a monk.

Currently travelling with my girlfriend. She's from Sichuan, China. Loves hiking, yoga, reading and exploring new cities. She's as open-minded as I am :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Fan of Studio Ghibli movies, movies that mess with your head, sci-fi, comedy, anime. Music-wise I have a preference for house, EDM, jazz, anything upbeat (swing included) and 90s classics. I like books that teach you new things or open your mind. The Alchemist is an old favourite. Currently writing my own book on mindfulness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent about 6 hours from midnight, climbing to the peak of Mt Kilimanjaro before spectacularly emptying out the contents of my stomach out at the top, just as the sun rose.

Teach, Learn, Share

See below.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I play the guitar and sing, we can talk about life's philosophies - got plenty of stories to share. I like a good laugh and I'm particular on appreciating the small things in life. Always happy to help out with stuff in return for a place to stay. I'm also a certified strategic interventionist (life-coach under Tony Robbins) and I have a whole lot of experience with meditation and mindfulness. I'd be happy to teach / coach /share if you're interested ✌.
