Confident, curious and always up for a real conversation. I am a single dad, entrepreneur and ex-military - equally at home behind the wheel of a stick shift, in the kitchen whipping up a feast or demolishing a jar of Nutella.

Animals > Humans.
I have rescued everything from snakes to monkeys and bats and I am usually found around dogs (seven dogs deep at last count) or helping out at a local pet clinic.

Born in Lagos, raised across three countries and cities - Nigeria, the USA and India - I carry stories, flavors and perspectives from the globe.

Aquaculture, alternative health sciences, craft beer, and the rabbit hole of web3 aside, I am extremely passionate about parental rights.

If you love good food, great music and a sharp sense of humor, we'll get along just fine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, CS is the ultimate mix - hosting, surfing, great food, ice-cold beers and the occasional stand-up comedy night. It's about embracing the YOLO spirit and making every adventure count.

As a host, I love opening my doors to fellow explorers - swapping stories, trading perspectives and turning strangers into friends.

As a traveler, I thrive on diving into new cultures, discovering hidden corners and connecting with people who make a place truly come alive.

At the end of the day, it's all about adventure, laughter, and good vibes.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music
I’m an equal-opportunity listener - if it moves, I will groove. From symphonies to hip hop, death metal to house, I dip into everything. That said, my playlists are usually a lethal mix of EDM and Afrobeats.

Books
I buy books like some people stack coins - more than I can get through. Shelves stacked, wishlists loaded. Whether I finish them now or later does not matter. I like to think of it as my future retirement plan: when the world slows down, I will already have my library waiting.

Movies & Series
I treat movies like Netflix treats series - I watch them in parts, turn everything into cliffhangers. But when it comes to TV, I'm ruthless. Back-to-back episodes, marathon mode on. Also- certified Star Wars fan boi, currently rewatching the entire saga in true chronological order.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A tetanus shot gone wrong put me on life support, ICU stays, a stroke-coma combo and 2 NDEs. Doctors gave up, but I didn't. I fought back, rewrote the script and walked out living proof that odds are meant to be defied.
