I'm looking for good people to meet and talk to about fun things to see and do. Early to bed, early to rise describes me (unless I'm in Europe)

I am a full time nomad and I enjoy exploring ways of living cheap and traveling unconventionally. Cruises have been my latest way of living at low cost and I will have sailed 97 days this year.

With land travel I prefer to visit countries less traveled. Moldova is a great example of this, least touristed country in Europe.

I believe I am a fairly boring guy (not everyone agrees) - I will usually talk your ear off about discounts and bargains and may be mostly quiet the rest of the time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am wanting to make new friends from all over the world, whether it be from hosting or just hanging out.

Interests

I try to research places I visit as little as possible. Expectations can ruin everything.

My hierarchy of importance in meeting a new culture is

Eat
Drink
Meet the people
See the places

If you're eating and drinking then you're in a great position to be meeting people. The people can tell you the places you need to see.

I used to be active as much of the time as possible, the past few years I've become lazy and without routines; I'm looking to change this in 2026. I'm always up for trying something new - especially food / drink.

• cooking
• beer
• hiking
• backpacking
• golf
• bowling
• budget travel
• biking
• exploring
• drinking coffee

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a fan of most music, EDM and 80s/90s are essential.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I visited Budapest in 2017. I was supposed to stay for 4 days and instead stayed for two weeks. Visiting this city changed the course of my life. I've returned 6 times since.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm trying to learn to chill out, let things happen. I try to believe we should not worry about anything that is not within our immediate control.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer cooking, cleaning up after myself, advice/listening and friendship.
