About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To Baldly Go Where No Hair May Dare

ABOUT ME

I am a travelling writer, photographer and imprenditori. Sometimes I do touristy things, other times I need to get some work done, and I like to explore mountains, beaches and other outdoor stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

You don't need much to be happy, you just need to be happy :P

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to couchsurf anywhere I can, through the website or with people I meet in other ways. I go to CS meetups in new cities and always make the effort to be tidy and cook some food for my host in return!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed in many weird and wonderful places as the guest of some crazy beautiful people - most of them were NOT via couchsurf tho, but I'm starting to use the site more too. :)

Interests

Food, travel, photography, web stuff, maybe a conversation about the meaning of life at 4am once in a while.

Music, Movies, and Books

Pretty much anything goes on the music front! I prefer european and independent films to hollywood, and books I could talk about for a long time tbh...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a herd of wild elephants at the top of a mountain on a trek in India, a really beautiful sight.
I used my leg power to propel myself (on a bike...) along the Danube river, from southern Germany through Bavaria and Austria, all the way to Budapest, a distance visible from space!
And I lived in Japan in the powder heaven of Niseko for 4 months, snowboarding through forests and from the top of the peaks :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm into photography, making travel films, and writing, which I'm self-taught for all of those. I've studied some fairly boring things like finance and marketing, but it does make me useful if you run a business and need any help. I can teach you some Jiu-Jitsu for self defense too, given enough space and a nice soft landing!

Countries I’ve Visited

Israel, Montenegro, South Korea

Countries I’ve Lived In

India, Japan, United States
