Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To live a full life and smile my way through It.
ABOUT ME
Currently travelling! Been on the road since 2023! 😁
A traveller at heart, drawn to new landscapes, conversations that stretch late into the night, and moments that reveal the beauty of everyday life. For me travel isn’t just sightseeing, it’s self-discovery in motion. It’s the laughter over shared meals, the quiet walks through unfamiliar streets and the friendships born from chance encounters.
I’m easygoing, curious, and just as happy hiking a mountain trail as I’m getting lost in a local market or sitting over tea with a new friend.
Philosophy
“Love says: ‘I am everything.’ Wisdom says: ‘I am nothing.’ Between the two my life flows.” – Sri Nisargadatta
“Be like the flower that gives its fragrance to even the hand that crushes it.” – Imam Ali
“To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries.” – Aldous Huxley
What I Offer
If I’m hosting, expect good conversation, local tips, and a comfortable space to rest. If I’m surfing, I’ll bring curiosity, respect, and probably a home-cooked vegetarian meal to share.
Fun Facts:
I have a “bad” habit with buying more books than I can read 📚🤓
Learning to play the Setar 🪕
And a street photography enthusiast 📷

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet people from different cultures, and learn as much from them as possible.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Travel has introduced me to countless fascinating people, each with their own stories, dreams, and adventures. No matter where we come from, we share the same impulse, to explore the world and connect. There’s something deeply fulfilling about opening your door to a stranger, or having someone open theirs to you, and feeling instantly at home.
For me, CS has been more than a way to find a place to stay, it’s been a doorway to new perspectives, lasting friendships, and unforgettable moments.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Planned to spend four days in New York City… ended up staying over three months thanks to an incredible host, Lex, and the friendships that turned the city into home.
Spent six days on a sailboat, crossing from Panama to Colombia, rocked to sleep by the ocean.
Hitchhiked from Vancouver all the way to Alaska, meeting amazing people, some who welcomed me into their homes like family.
Teach, Learn, Share
I’m always up for swapping ideas about spirituality, philosophy, psychology or just life in all its messy and beautiful forms.
Not a certified guru by any means, but I can show you a few meditation tricks that might help you slow down, breathe, and enjoy the ride.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Plenty of stories, good company, and a home-cooked vegetarian meal made with love :)
