About Me

CURRENT MISSION
I have just returned to Luxembourg after adventuring around the world for 2 years. I have come back to be closer to my family who live in the region.
I will be working in Kirchberg for a while and am looking for a room in Luxembourg town to be closer to work a few days a week. I will be spending nights at my families house but am trying to find alternatives to the long commute:)
If you are open to this option and would like to discuss further I am open to renting or work exchange of some sort.

ABOUT ME

Curious and enjoy learning about new cultures. I consider myself to be open, up for adventure and easygoing. I am an avid traveler with nomadic tendencies!

PHILOSOPHY

'I have my own laws and my own court to judge me and I refer to these rather than elsewhere. I certainly refrain my actions out of deference to others but I see them only in my own light.'
Montaigne "Essays" 1588

Avoid the complicated, seek out the complex

oh yeah and enjoy the little moments...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first official couchsurfing experience was BC Canada a while back and had a great time...

During my time in Costa Rica I had an open house policy, I felt so lucky to have such a great place that I thought it needed to be shared.

Grateful for couchsurfing hosts' hospitality....
