About Me

I am an easy-going individual who enjoys discussions, going out and socializing in general. I prefer to listen to others, and hear their story while traveling in addition to sharing aspects from my own culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From mid-September 2015, I am to embark on a 3 month adventure to see more of the world we all live in. I aim to see places in Eastern Europe, France, Scandinavia and much, much more. I hope to be able to use Couchsurfing to connect, meet and share the adventure with locals from all those places and in between!

Interests

I tend to explore a lot of the world around me, and make it my mission to have a small understanding (or big!) for all subjects and areas. My passions extend to film, books and technology. Areas of specific interest in technology are in computing, mechanics and robotics.

My love for the world, its history and potential is a subject of great interest to me. The cosmic picture and understanding is always a fascinating concept to ponder on, especially at night viewing the stars and solar system (sometimes with a telescope).

Music, Movies, and Books

I am an avid literature fan, and enjoy books from all periods and genres, some including but not limited to are:
- Cormac McCarthy
- Arthur Rimbaud
- Emily Dickinson
- Albert Camus
- Arthur C Clarke
-- all the way to Dr Seuss!
-- many, many more - with many, many to come.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It is hard to narrow down my travels that summarizes it all to one amazing point, however a few experiences that I fondly look back on are:
- Hot Air Ballooning over the Arizona Desert
- A Helicopter flight over the Grand Canyon
- Snowmobiling through the outskirts of Lake Tahoe
- Jet-skiing through the San Diego Bay Area.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am proficient in most types of consumer technology and typically have the knowledge to troubleshoot them as such on a first and second tier basis. I have an ear for language and am always willing to learn more and more about it's history, its use and application!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to share cultural experiences with my hosts and provide whatever services I have knowledge in to assist their lives for hopefully the better.
