ABOUT ME

I am a sailor. I can't stand being bored and as a result, I end up working myself silly on personal projects. I like to work with my hands. I need new challenges all the time, so I prefer to make things that I have never made before. "One day... I shall make a village."
But all work and no play makes my head dizzy,so I like to do adventurous things once in a while. I feed my energy on meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

To Inspire and be Inspired

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Good company, I hope. I see this as a long term thing. One day I will have my own place too, even if it's in the bush in the middle of Africa. and then I would want people to surf my couch too.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As a non-CS member, a French man (Pascal) pulled up next to me a on his bicycle in the pouring rain, while I was lost on my Vespa in Dunquerque. He offered that I can sleep in his house even though he had hardly any space. He went out of his way to help me and I want to pay it forward if I can. My dad can offer accommodation to anybody going to Johannesburg.

Sperm Whales got their name from the white liquid that is found inside their heads. The biggest Jellyfish in the world is the Lion Main Jelly. When traveling, the people you meet are more interesting than the places you see.
