About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Film and eat my way across the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm laid back and friendly, always looking forward to new experiences and meeting new people. I spend most of my time working on film and music projects. There aren't many places I wouldn't like to travel to, nor many foods I wouldn't like to try at least once.

PHILOSOPHY

Experience is truth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm happy to offer advice regarding any of the places I've traveled to before (especially Thailand, as I lived there for quite a while) or to meet up with people looking to explore my hometown or their own with me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Thailand I was fortunate enough to be invited to stay with a Garieng hilltribe villiage for a week in the mountains along the Burmese border. I helped to build a microhydro plant while there and also volunteered at their school.
