CURRENT MISSION

Love the life you lead. Lead the life you love.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and meet other travellers and adventurous people. I used to have an office job, then I quit to travel and volunteer in Central America, then I owned and managed a hostel in Colombia for 5 years, and now I am back on the road again. I'm a pescatarian.

PHILOSOPHY

I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list.

I love to meet new people, organize and attend CS events, help people practice English, and share my knowledge.

All good so far. I have surfed many couches and hosted many a couch surfer before joining CS, and since then I have met tons of wonderful people and many good friends through the site!

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Too many to count but if I have to pick it's either swimming with whale sharks in Mexico, or helping a 90 year old woman vote for the first time.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I am a scuba divemaster and have studied yoga, massage, and reiki and I enjoy teaching/practicing them all. I also like to exchange English/Spanish lessons. And I am getting pretty good at motorcycle maintenance too. I love to learn.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I'm a pretty decent vegetarian cook.
