About Me

I am in between US visas and living on my bike, riding around Europe and trying to see everything everywhere. I can speak a little bit of a few languages but bouncing from country to country makes it bloody hard to remember anything, so bare with me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I met one of the founders of Couchsurfing on a plane, and we got absolutely shitfaced on duty free brandy. He made it sound pretty awesome. I hosted some folks when I had an apartment, but now I am traveling around raising awareness for carbon offsetting (https://offset.earth/articles/climate-emergency/climate-change-by-bike). Every time I get to stay on a sofa I can donate a few hundred trees to the fundraiser, so please help me keep them coming!

Interests

Come ride bikes with me! I am carrying 60lb of crap so if you're not all that fast, that's ok!
