Hi friends,

I'm Chukwuka. I tell stories for a living using poetry and film. I publish my travel stories on a digital travel magazine I founded called Yolar Magazine. People say my default facial expression is a smile, I think they're right.

Since I've survived riding on a shattered boat for 9hours without a life jacket, camping all night on a cold mountain without a tent, and hiking up a rock while carrying a huge log of wood, I consider myself an African Superman.

When I'm not traveling, writing, climbing some stage to perform poetry, or teaching people how they can live life on their own terms and live their dreams, I spend time helping business create awesome digital experiences online that will increase their sales exponentially. When I'm not doing any of the above, I'm trying out some new local delicacy. I know my love for food doesn't show on my body, I've got good genes.

I plan to visit every country in the world and to meet other amazing travelers.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I was excited when I first discovered Couchsurfing. I'm interested in traveling the world, meeting new people and sharing in their beliefs, cultures, traditions and their stories.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Probably not the most amazing thing I've done yet, but it was pretty cool taking my first boat trip. It was a 9 hour trip on a market boat from Yenegoa to a little town in Bayelsa State (Nigeria).

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I'm open to sharing my skills in storytelling, filmmaking and poetry. I'm also a bit of a techie, and a big football dude.

I hope to learn the cultures of others, share my own experiences traveling, and doing business, and also share my love for the guitar.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Everything I've got, which isn't a lot. Except for my bottle of water and perhaps some snacks I love carrying around. However, I've got lots of stories I'll want to share, some poetry (if they're into that sort of thing) and hopefully, I can create amazing memories with them too.

Países en los que he vivido

Japan, Nigeria
