Hey there, I am Sam🎈

A random guy hitchhiking around the world.

Passionate about woodworking and climbing, I thrive on meeting new people and exploring life's myriad experiences. Following a four-month cycling stint across Europe, I'm now hitchhiking around the world from France!

This 3-year journey is set to cover roughly 50,000kms, and I'm excited to share this adventure with amazing folks along the way! 😊🌍

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

The reason I'm on Couchsurfing is simple: I'm eager to connect with people from across the globe. Traveling solo can be quite an adventure, and I find joy in sharing experiences with others while enjoying the warmth of a welcoming place to stay.

Música, películas y libros

While cruising on my bike, I vibed to some serene rap and laid-back tunes, grooving to artists like Nekfeu, Lomepal, Yuz, Lujipeka, and Fredz.

For more laid-back moments, I'd sway to chilled-out melodies from Pomme, Lil Yan, Acid Ghost, Beach Fossils, and Cigarettes After Sex.

In the evenings, I tune into podcasts for a bit of mental stimulation.

Now, when it comes to movies and series, I'm not the binge-watching type. However, I won't say no to a good comedy!

Reading? Ah, yes, I fancy that too, although I reckon I should dedicate more time to it. It's on the list, promise!

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I'm excited to share a taste of local cuisine, engage in cultural exchanges, swap stories about my travels, and offer insights into must-visit spots in France. Plus, I've got a few hilarious card games up my sleeve that I'd be delighted to teach you!

I am straight and I value Couchsurfing as an amazing way to connect with people from all around the world, not as a dating app.
