About Me

ABOUT ME

I was sure I wanted to travel since I was 11, it was the only thing I was sure I wanted to do with my life. I've been all over the world and lived in Indonesia for the past 4 years working on sailing boats as a dive guide. For the future I want to see more of the world with Sandra my girlfriend and learn how to fly helicopters.

PHILOSOPHY

Dont grow old with regrets.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I havent yet but I'll let you know soon.

Interests

I love the ocean, i've spent so much time underwater the past 4 years diving and find it so relaxing. Its cool to meet new people all the time, see how other people live, try new foods, learn new languages. I love being outdoors from playing football to hiking in the himalayas.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading, James Clavell is a favorite, so are Murakami, Orwell and Rushdie but will try anything really. I love dance music from Kruder and Dorfmeister to Sasha. I havent seen that many movies because I haven't had a tv for ages.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learning to free dive with whalesharks in west papua was pretty amazing

Teach, Learn, Share

I think we can learn something from everyone. I could teach somebody Bahasa Indonesian and how to scuba dive and tell some cool stories from travels.
