About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hey, I am travelling to South Africa to see my family for the first time in 3 years!! ^^ due to this for the next couple of months I wont be able to host anyone! Remember to hug the things you love

ABOUT ME

when you look at me, you'd say, nice guy with a cool smile.. I'm one of those quiet introverts, constantly looking at the outside world, never stopping my wondering mind, my soul loves the world, and all in it, exploring is something as close to me as a lover, adventure I need as one would need air. My head's been underwater and I breath fine, big love for diving and the unexplored under water world.

PHILOSOPHY

ur still alive

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Indonesia opened me up for couch surfing, and by meeting so many open minded and kind people I deemed it good. So now my couch is open to travellers of all shapes and sizes, anyone in my book is good, as long as you love animals and children you are okay by me

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So many stories already, not enough characters to mention all those on here but I have a quickly, locals regardless of where you are, know more about the area, the hidden gems, the beaten road, those types of information is invaluable and have let me to great places, places I would not have found without taking a risk, meeting a new person and trusting them.

Interests

Reading..Author's have a funny way of become my best friends, it's like grabbing a novel, getting lost in it, swimming through the pages, a imaginative world appearing in your sub conscious as the words dance their way into your mind, by reading, you get a small window into an-others thoughts, it's decadent.

Music...ow the love of music..all of it...all the time..just yes yes yes

Bicycle - i like jumping on my bicycle, heading out to a mountain, going on a trail i've never been on, going to fast, jumping to high, falling down, having mud all over me, getting out of breath, cycling till i cant feel my legs, its an endless affair

Diving - lately my passion and love for diving has increased tremendously, at the moment I am based close to cool dive sites, I pursue diving and all it holds as one would a pursue a dream, for me, it's a magical mystery world, to be respected, preserved and explored, constantly and as frequent as possible

I'm going to stop writing about my interest now because you did not visit my page to read a book... :P sorry
