Overview
About Me
I'm an optician who travels the world looking for hand made artisan eyewear. I also travel for the love of it. A father of two wonderful girls, and a very curious knowledge seeker, I just want to keep learning about the world as much as I can.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Going to a new city and seeing it from a touristy eye can be boring. Staying with a local would help me know so much more from the insider's point of view. It would allow me to absorb the local scene and a sense of being there as people there stay.
And I would love to host some wonderful people from all over the world!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Raised two wonderful daughters with my wife of 22 years - way better than most "things" I've done :)
Teach, Learn, Share
I could learn so much from every person that I meet- their lives , their experiences, their cultures, their thoughts.
We could share our cultural and social diversities and what makes us different and same !
Would love to learn the philosophies of our lands and people. Would love to learn about the local art and cuisines and wines.
