ABOUT ME
I've traveled my share, lived in 4 countries and tried out a few different lifestyles. I've worked as (among other things) an unlicensed tour guide, a graphic designer, an army volunteer, a confectioner, a ceiling plasterer and a programmer.
I've got interesting experiences to share... wanna know what it's like to organize and carry out a successful 3-minibus excursion in a foreign country to a place you barely know when you're only 19 or what happens when a group of thirsty volunteers on a military base finds out there's a limitless supply of crappy rose wine in a nearby locked and guarded warehouse?
Currently I live in a city where an elevator load of people in a residential building can represent half of the world's countries, posh houses don't need electrified fences and where a deer can be seen in a park a few blocks away from skyscrapers - a great place to call home and hopefully a base for lots of great trips in the future.
Speaking of travel... if you host me you can expect respect for yourself and your place which I'll do my best to keep at least as clean as when I first set foot in it. I don't really care how comfortable a couch (or a patch of floor for all I care) is. What I do care for are fine people and interesting places.
I can be as independent as you'd like me to. If do have time for a drink and to show me a couple of cool places I'll be more than happy, if not - it's totally fine, I can be 100% independent.
PHILOSOPHY
"Indecision is the key to flexibility"
