Hi. My name is Tim. I enjoy the freedom to travel as I like - just me and my 4kg backpack. I enjoy people, good food, architecture, scenic landscapes, and a little night life. All these things are great but for me it's the social interactions I have while travelling that are the spice of life.

I've surfed beds, couches, and hardwood floors in several countries and I'll tell you from experience that all of those are better than sleeping outside because I couldn't find a room. Yes, that happened. Several times. You can find me and more of my travel photos on Insta (@Zarkaya) if you need verification that I am who I say I am.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

It's more fun and more interesting. It's the people that make travel worth while. And locals have the unique ability to know what's good that's not necessarily touristy. A good conversation with someone from a completely different place is worth 10,000 sights.

Also, sometimes a stranger in a strange land needs a friend, guide, or help. I have been the host that provides these things and the guest that needs them. I'm more seasoned every time I travel so hopefully I'll do more of the providing than the needing going forward.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I have much I can teach, there is much I can learn

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

I'll gladly hang out, go for drinks or dinner, and share my stories. I want to meet your friends and go dancing. I'm fine with being independent too. Your companionship is what makes travel great and your local knowledge enriches my experience. Of course I'm not opposed to working; I'll do your dishes, help with chores, or even make repairs if you like. I'm very handy. My general intention is to leave a place in better condition than it was when I arrived.
