About Me

Hi,

As part of my previous job I had to travel a lot & for a long period to different countries.
Due to this life style, my passion for travel just got stronger & now it became an addiction :)

I have been in India, South Africa , Europe & almost 2.5 years in Latin America .
By September,2017 I completed 30 countries that I have visited so far.
In the end of 2016 I started a new job in Amsterdam , Netherlands , hence I moved to live in a city near by called Utrecht (4th largest city in the Netherlands).

I am super social, love to meet & hangout with new people.
When I came to Utrecht I was lonely expat, however within a month I created my first FB group which is used for creating events for playing board games. through it I met most of my best friends in Utrecht.
the group is active with more than 200 members & it is called "Utrecht - Board Games"

Later on I decided to do something related to my travel passion where I can travel & meet new people which led me to create my 2nd active group :
"NL - Out & About"
https://www.facebook.com/groups/474303162930839/

In my office we are playing foosball games, however, I was suck in it. So I decided to buy a foosball table & then I created a 3rd FB group for meeting in my apartment, socialising & what else ... playing foosball :D
The group called: "Utrecht - Foosball Lovers" https://www.facebook.com/groups/1495931713855150/

I never used couch surfing!
So my plans for 2018 is to host people in my place & crush on other people couches :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people, learn about their traditions, culture & simply expand my friendship circle.
you are more than welcome to come over to crash on my couch :)

Interests

  • traveling
  • meeting people

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to collect music from strangers, people who I just met or simply shazam the playing songs everywhere wherever I am.
Why to limit yourself to one type of music if there is out much more
