About Me

I travel when I can and I love a good adventure.

Gave in to the corporate life but I do enjoy art, design, film, photography, literature and theatre. I also have a keen interest in criminal law. And my interests are pretty all over the place, as you'll realize... I love board games!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love to travel and meet people. My mission is to try every country-specific McDonalds burger and to sip on margaritas everywhere I go.
