Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To travel as much as possible, this is the key to life and happiness!
ABOUT ME
I'm a very open-minded person, I would say that it is my biggest quality. I'm also a vegetarian, which I think says a lot about my personality. I love to discover other cultures, so I love to travel. So no matter your ethnicity, your sexual preferences, your looks, your tatooes, your piercings, your implants, you are welcome on my couch!
I just moved to Hong Kong so I'm eager to meet the CS community here!
PHILOSOPHY
"Do not do to people what you don't want them to do to you", this is my motto.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I know how it is to travel on a small budget, so this project is great. Also, the best part in traveling is to meet local people to get a genuine experience of the country. Meeting new people from other cultures and points of views is a wonderful experience.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Have met some people and couch crashed several times during my travels before, but the best is in Squamish, in BC, Canada. While hitchhiking after climbing a mountain in the cold and rain, we met Zach who gave us a ride to town. The next day, we met him again in a coffee shop. The next thing we know, we are flying a kite with him and his friend, who happened to have bought a van when he was drunk one day and didn't know what to do with it. He ended up giving the van to us! That's the couch surfing spirit, oh yeah!
When I was in Paris I hosted around 60-70 people... Not at the same time of course!
