About Me

CURRENT MISSION

After a few years in Asia, I'm ready to take on a new adventure. I'll be travelling through Central and South America for the forseable future, and of course I hope to see many new cool places and to meet even more cool people!

ABOUT ME

I don't like to work all year waiting for a two-week holiday, so I usually work hard, save money and then travel until I can find a new job somewhere. It's worked so far and I'll keep on doing it. This time I want to see the Americas, my trip starts in Cuba and will end, hopefully, at the southern end of the world. On the way there it would be great to exchange as many stories as possible and meet some cool people.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. And I don't pay to pee.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing and hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed a bit, hosted a bit, met plenty of nice people.

Interests

Books, movies, a lot of music, playing ukulele, walking, trekking, drinking, bbq after a night out (although that only works in China), trying weird looking food.

Music, Movies, and Books

As a friend of mine puts it: "God gave Rock'n'Roll to you!" But then, as there are so many books and movies and bands out there one has to be very openminded.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Planning trips i haven't done and going to places i hadn't planned to go to.

Teach, Learn, Share

Everybody has something to teach and much more to learn. Travelling and meeting people are the best ways to do it.
I can share some travel stories, you can teach me anything you want.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Mainly stories and tips about travelling/working in Asia. And I can cook a decent pasta.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Cambodia, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Czech Republic, El Salvador, France, Germany, Guatemala, Honduras, Hungary, Laos, Malaysia, Mexico, Nicaragua, Russian Federation, Slovakia, Taiwan, Thailand, Viet Nam
