About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To boldly wander

ABOUT ME

I like getting lost, watching the world go by, misreading maps and hoping for the best.
I like meeting local people - that's always what I remember when I go home.
I like staying for more than a few days in one place and getting to live life in that country instead of being a spectator.

PHILOSOPHY

Get lost.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I get home and have a couch of my own, I will be more than happy to show people around wherever I am.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Mostly amateur - friend's couches, and so on. I have slept on beaches before too. Couches are more comfortable and tend to have less crabs.

Interests

Reading books (mostly fiction, pop psychology), chatting, music (particularly Belle and Sebastian), doing bad things to guitars, travelling, tennis... that's more than enough of that, don't you think?
