Hello World! I moved to San Francisco during the pandemic and I hardly know anyone around here! Come take advantage of my undersubscribed circle of local friends and let’s enjoy everything the beautiful Bay Area has to offer! I very much enjoy meeting new people, especially from other countries and cultures. I really enjoy good company, a nice discussion, a great adventure or a simple stroll in the park. Got a wild idea? Bring it on! Got a docile idea? Please do too! Whoever you are, I’m sure we have a lot to learn from each other - and it’ll be good fun too.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I would like to offer anyone the kind of hospitality I have experienced. I consider myself lucky to have had a great number of fantastic encounters with amazing individuals over the course of the last couple of years. Unfortunately my current housing situation does not allow me to host (roommates & Covid safety), but I’m super down to meet. Since I joined CS, I've surfed various places in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Scandinavia, Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, Czech republic, the USA, Canada, Ecuador, Peru and Romania. None of those countries have been the same since I've surfed there and I doubt that any country ever will be.
Music, Movies, and Books
Tell me yours and I'll tell you mine.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
On two separate occasions, I accidentally swallowed quite a good sip of aftershave. I also embarrassed the CEO of Shell in a debating competition.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love to make things and I know many ways to do so. I enjoy learning anything I don't yet know how to do (which is a lot) and I challenge myself to share anything I'm invited to share and try to picture myself in the shoes and thoughts of whoever is kind enough to share a piece of their mind with me.
What I Can Share With Hosts
On open mind, curiosity and the spirit of adventure.
My Interests
Whatever gets people talking! If it's up to me...music, politics, psychology, hiking, surfing, meeting new people, organizing stuff anything crazy/expanding/funny/moving. In fact, there are few things that don't arouse my interest.
