CURRENT MISSION

To travel around the world, experiencing all the interesting things it has to offer. One of best experiences of travel is the lifelong friendships made.

ABOUT ME

Currently travelling the world with no definitive end date, my intention is to travel as long and as far as I can. I quit my job to travel the world and I couldn't be happier about my decision. I'm funny, enjoy making people laugh, I'm always happy and upbeat, and I'm always the first person to laugh at myself. Always up for a meaningful conversation over wine, and I enjoy a night out on the town. I appreciate and enjoy big cities as much as I appreciate small towns, villages, and untouched lands. I like to see how every walk of life lives, and I want to live it myself. I can hold a conversation with just about any topic, and I'm endlessly curious about other people so I ask many questions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am interested in exploring foreign places with a local, as I've found it truly is the best way to navigate a new place "locals know best!". My intention is to immerse myself in the local culture and not just go to a place to say I've been there, I want to experience a place as a local would. I've a had a few times where I've travelled this way, and it's always been the best way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I drove over 2,000Km on a motorcycle through Vietnam from Saigon to Hanoi. This experience brought me to major cities, as well as small villages of less than 50 people in the countryside that are rarely (if ever) visited by westerners. The reactions of the locals, especially the village children, when seeing a westerner was priceless and the warm welcoming will be an experience I never forget

What I Can Share with Hosts

Memorable laughs, stories, and perhaps valuable insights. Interesting conversations, one constant conversation would most likely be world travel. Hopefully we can explore the city together, and a meal is on me.
