I've been fortunate to live many places around the world. Over the years, I have been a host and hosted others as we all explore our world. Sometimes it's been formally through this site, other times it has been friends of friends of friends passing through.

I'm now on the road again myself and would love to meet others along the way! I will be traveling on a motorbike that is far too small (really just a boda) for the journey I intend for it, but that should help keep it exciting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm traveling throughout Eastern and Southern Africa on my little boda boda. I've lived in Rwanda and Kenya, but am excited to explore more before starting a new job later this year.
