About Me

Food and travel are two great passions of mine. I like to eat my way through whatever country I find myself in. My blog and Instagram are both food and travel oriented. I can't have one without the other. I love sharing and cooking food with the people that I meet.

Check out my blog and Instagram to get a better idea:

I tend to travel as spontaneously as I can and for extended periods at a time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to mix with both the locals and other travelers. Traveling like this provides me with a more real understanding and experience of a place whilst also allowing me to meet some potential travel buddies.

Interests

Food, traveling, cooking, swimming holes, hiking, hitchhiking, museums, badminton, blogging, creative writing

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite book is 'A Little Life' by Hanya Yanagihara. I like the "slice of life" kind of genre.

I like documentaries especially on VICE and authentic food / travel programs rather than those regular cooking shows featuring those cliché phrases like "here's what I prepared earlier".

I'm into many genres of music, but not heavily invested in any. I guess my favourite styles are rap, hip-hop, reggaeton and Caribbean music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volcano Boarding -sledding down Cerra Negro volcano (the youngest volcano in Nicaragua) just after checking out the steaming craters above and below.

Jumping off the Old Bridge in Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina 23m above the river water level.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook for you or we can cook together if you like.
If you are looking to maybe improve your English, I'm happy to help with that too.
We can also share our favourite travel stories.
