I am a sociologist, an epistemophile and a hodophile; an uninhibited soul warrior... ..- a professor by profession, but a free spirited, spiritually oriented, solo traveller in practice❤️I love the praxis of my discipline -“Sociology”, which is best materialised through witnessing new cultures ...I enjoy travelling solo around the world and befriending like minded folks ..I adore the beaches, the deserts, as well as the mountains, and have a thing for music..By nature, I am an ambivert, and would spontaneously respond to the vibes around.. I really look forward to meeting some amazing souls through Couchsurfing😃 ✨✨Caution: CS is NOT a fuck app!!!! Furthermore, I’m not here to kill time! Only interested in meeting genuine travellers !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet the locals and fellow travellers, and to learn about different cultures. I have had some great experiences through couch surfing and the worst experience too! So on guard 😉
