I love spring and the smell of linden trees after the rain. I enjoy being on the road and the freedom that comes with it. Sometimes I talk a lot sometimes i don't.

Im drawn to remote places and things undiscovered. Right now I am exploring life during lockdown in Tulum, Mexico and planning for a big trip to Asia soon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing brings the world to my doorstep when I can't go out into the world. I love having people from all corners of the world and all walks of life. With each Couchsurfer comes a totally new experience, sometimes crazy off-the rails, sometimes quiet and philosophical. I love it.

For the authenticity. I grew up in a very culturally diverse environment and when I'm abroad I like experiencing places as authentically as I possibly can - and there's no better way to do that than living and hanging out with locals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I sold or donated about 80% of my stuff in 2016.
I slid down a 2600m mountain on my ass, through the snow, in the middle of February, with a coucsurfer who couldn't rent equipment because she didn't know how to skii. Had the time of my life.
Spent a magical month and a half in Morocco by myself.
Went on a beautiful mosque hunt in Iran
Finally hitting the road for an extended period of time (December 2017)
Set up a great life and career in Tulum, Mexico which I'm ready to leave again to explore new parts of the world.
