Hey there! I’m Archie—a lifelong wanderer with an insatiable curiosity to uncover the world’s hidden corners.

I spent 7 years working in marketing at a Fortune 500 company and I’ve just made the exciting choice to step away from my role in September 2025.
Now, I’m diving into my very first trip to Europe from October 2025, filled with so much curiosity.

This time, I’ve already explored Paris🇫🇷, Switzerland🇨🇭, and northern Italy🇮🇹, with southern Italy, more parts of France, and Spain up next. What I’m looking forward to most isn’t just the sights, but meeting new friends along the way—and hoping this journey brings fresh insights about myself.

I believe the best adventures happen when you say “yes” to the unknown. If you’re up for exploring, swapping travel tales, or even hunting for the perfect photo spot, let’s connect. The world’s too big to stay in one place—and I can’t wait to see it through your eyes, too.

Cheers to new paths and even better company! 🌍📸⛺

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m someone who’s endlessly curious about new things—exploring diverse cultures and connecting with people from all walks of life isn’t just a hobby for me, but a way to grow.

Couchsurfing lets me turn this curiosity into real, meaningful interactions: through chatting and sharing moments with hosts or fellow travelers, I get to peek into their daily lives, learn stories I’d never hear otherwise, and in the process, figure out more clearly what truly matters to me.

Interests

I’m passionate about photography, hiking, and all things nature—there’s nothing like capturing a mountain sunrise or a forest’s quiet beauty with my camera.

I also love exploring city architecture and local cultures, as every place has unique stories to tell.

What drives me most is curiosity: I’m eager to try new things, whether it’s hiking a new trail or cycling through a city’s streets with someone who knows the area.
