About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To surf and be surfed!

ABOUT ME

I like to talk, to discuss, to debate and learn about new things from different people and different points of view. In my free time I enjoy reading, acroyoga, surfing, climbing, swimming, jogging (well I am not sure if I enjoy it but I do it!) and going out for a few beers. Of course I love travelling, seeing new places and new cultures, and I enjoy talking about that as well.

PHILOSOPHY

To enjoy life, now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed and been surfed on many occasions – before I had a joined account with Julian Virguez – his member name is PULSARLIGHT, please see his site for our shared references! Also I have been to some CS social events in London and Sydney

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed in Slovenia, Latvia, Singapore, Portugal, Malta, Australia and Washington D.C. and welcomed different surfers into my home. Right now I'm on the road again (kind of..) but would love to meet up with people along the way for coffee..
