About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Not sure yet :P

ABOUT ME

Love the ocean and arts 💙

I've been a nomad since 2011. After over a decade without a base, I'm now settled and growing roots in Bali, Indonesia.

I'm settled now but still love traveling and working on my travel sketch book at the moment!

PHILOSOPHY

"Live dangerously, live joyously. Live without fear, live without guilt. Live without any fear of hell, or any greed for heaven. Just live!" - Osho

‎"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans" - John Lennon

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting a lot and surfing a lot. I love it.
Love sharing and exchanging experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Lots of great experiences so far. Never had a bad one.
Here are some good ones:
30 days couchsurfing non stop in French Polynesia - 7 different islands - it'd never be possible without CS
My host for 2 nights in Thailand became my housemate for 6 months, where I did my dive master course.
My fellow CS friends showed me the way to travel by boat. I spent 2 months in a boat cruising and diving around Indonesia.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I followed my heart:
Left a solid engineering carrier to live on a boat and dive every day
Left my boat-diving dream job to become a full time artist, painting the ocean

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: painting, drawing, arts and crafts. Learn: languages - I'm into French now
Share: my passion for the ocean and arts
