About Me

Easy going and friendly person. I love conversing on any topic as long as we don't get too serious about religion and politics. If you're interested in sports, just name it and you've got a mate to go out and play or sit back on the couch and enjoy a game or two. Non-smoker. Love to try all sorts of foods, especially the local foods and drinks. Let's hop on a bike and explore the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Budget traveller basically. More than that, I love the idea to spend some time with the locals and see their country like they do. Not a bad way to absorb some culture, is it?
