CURRENT MISSION

To soak the effin' marrow out of life

ABOUT ME

I'm the somewhat off-centre, excessively energetic, well-read type trying to soak up life before the 9-5 routine kicks in. I've gone backpacking for long periods a few times and have made a lot of great friendships along the way. I like seeing a city from different angles, something that parkour, urban exploration and geocaching have taught me much about.

Besides English, I speak Spanish, French and German.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet locals and make friends! It's quite simple, really.

Interests

Social justice, law, cycling, urban exploration, philosophy, writing, geocaching, learning new languages (I speak Spanish, English, French and German), unpretentiously visiting all the most awesome sites of a new city
