About Me

A free-spirited individual who spends most of the time under the water, the sun, the stars and eating!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently taking a year off! Started off the year by exploring Greece and Germany. Just finished an magical trip in the Hawaiian islands. About to start off a six-month trip from the bottom of South America to the top! There is nothing better than meeting and exchanging experiences, cultures, food and knowledge with the locals. I have been around the world for five years now, couch surfing is one of the best things I've done as a traveler.

taveling.... traveling.. traveling... traveling... traveling... traveling... and traveling

Music, Movies, and Books

Books give a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life in everything.

A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess (a unique book!)
Into Thin Air - Jon Krakauer (the same author as Into the Wild. One of best outdoor books in my opinion)
Anna Karenina- Leo Tolstoy (a classic Russian book )
Shantaram David Gregory Roberts

and many more! I simply cannot list them all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As a scuba diving lover, waking up before the sunrise just to dive 30m with Thresher sharks at Malapascua Island, Philippiness. An absolutely breathtaking experience to be able to connect with the sea creatures.

Traveling from Cape Town to Cairo Egypt using only local bus transportation for six months. What a breathtaking experience to be able to intergrate myself into different aspects of Africa.

Teach, Learn, Share
