About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Not to have any regrets about things I didn't do.

ABOUT ME

I am NOT looking for a boyfriend or date as I'm already in a relationship! Do not contact me if your intention along those lines, please. I don't want to be rude or anything, but I have had my fair share of messages from CS members whose intention I haven't really been sure about.

I am someone who thinks that you should take all the chances you get to experience things even if they seem scary at first because you learn so much from it and grow as a person. I do travel a bit for work nowadays, but the kind of travels that are "fly in, do the work, fly out" so I am very familiar with airports and taxis, but not so much the destinations I've been to unfortunately. Hence, when I go somewhere for my holidays I want to do and see as much as possible.

PHILOSOPHY

Just do it! :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have not participated all that much really... A hectic work schedule makes my free time feel very limited and time just flies by. I gladly help out any way I can, but at the moment I cannot host anyone.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My previous experiences from CS is mostly from Italy where my friend Ari introduced me to the concept during a trip to Milan. I have also spent some time with what became a good friend in the UK.

Interests

Music, friends, photography, rock climbing and culture.

Music, Movies, and Books

Hitchhikers guide, naturally. But I do think many has missed out on the wonderful book "Last chance to see..." that was also written by Douglas Adams. Even though it is not travelling as what most people here describe it is real world travelling experiences described by a really good author. I always have it as a backup audiobook in my phone to listen to if I run out of new books. I never tire of it.
