About Me

I am currently setting up 3 companies, Whack Studio a mobile gaming company MUKHA an online interview magazine and KevoKanvas an advertising agency.

I was recently based in Accra, Ghana working for the Meltwater Entrepreneurial School of Technology (MEST). I helped to guide a few tech start ups with their sales strategy and help develop their sales organisation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I couchsurfed many moons ago and now I don't remember my login details! Argh.

It's been ages and I am really looking forward to doing this again. I love travel, I love meeting new people and especially seeing them outside their comfort zone. Schadenfreude my friend.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Never ever hit on the only local girl sitting at an expat bar. There is a very good chance she is the chef's girlfriend.

Teach, Learn, Share

Some concocted business theories, loopy theories on world economics, and the most random collection of trivia.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Plenty of stupid stories from around the world so you may learn from my ludicrous mistakes :)
