About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see and enjoy as much of this planet as I can.

ABOUT ME

After a crazy life in Prague and stint at nomading, life took me to beautiful Ljubljana, Slovenia. I’m able to host sometimes, but I’m around rather sporadically.

I love hanging out with people from around the world. I do not necessarily need a host when traveling, I am happy also just to meet up for a conversation or walk.

PHILOSOPHY

I am a yes person in a no world.

Yeah, I wrote that when I first got CS circa 2010/2011. Not sure how true that is!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it's fun! It is one of the best things I have ever done. I enjoy attending and sometimes organizing events.

Teach, Learn, Share

As former student of international relations and geopolitics , I am always up for good conversations about anything that goes on the world. I can always help with English lessons. I can also teach you how to talk in a southern US accent if you want. I can also make an awesome Dutch-Indonesian satay sauce .
