About Me

I am a Londoner, currently living in Amsterdam. On 31st May 2015, me and my girlfriend Eliza are quitting our jobs and embarking on a cycling trip across Southern Europe over 3 months. We plan to cycle from Amsterdam to Brussels then get the train from there to southern France. We are trying to get to Be-in festival in Portugal by 10th June in order to work for them as volunteers for a couple of weeks. Then, we are planning to WWOFF at some organic farms in Portugal for a few months. We hope to cycle most of that journey and we would greatly appreciate if the kind people of couchsurfing could help us along way. We are taking our tents with us so we are happy to accept even if you only have a floor to offer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to host people in my house in the past before I became a member of coutchsurfing. I always enjoyed having people around. People that I hosted ranged from friends of friends to complete strangers that I met at the airport. I have never had any problems with any of them. Some of those experiences lead to some of the best stories that I can tell people. I never thought about why I was doing it but I guess that I wanted to prove to myself and the world that humanity still exists. To assure myself that not everything revolves around money. To see the world through the eyes of those who live in it. And to see my own world through a new set of eyes.

Interests

Traveling, meeting people, cooking, eating and daydreaming (about food).
If you are in to football, then we can talk for hours. Otherwise, I'm pretty good with conversation in general about any topic you can think of.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music

Teach, Learn, Share

Every person that I have met had something to tell me that I hadn't known before. You can learn from anyone, including yourself. Our lives on earth are far too short for us to try and accumulate material wealth. Experiences makes you richer in ways that you cannot quantify.
