ABOUT ME

I'm really easy going and relaxed. I'm always up for a joke, often at my own expense! I just graduated from university (studied civil engineering and business). At home I like to spend my near the ocean.

I am currently traveling around for 4 months, having spent 2 months in Europe with friends (Istanbul, Italy, Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague, Croatia, Montenegro, Budapest (and Sziget festival)) and 2 months in the USA (New York, Washington DC, San Fran, Lake Tahoe, Yosemite) and now spending my last month working my way from Vancouver to LA where I fly home in early November to find a job and top up the bank account!

PHILOSOPHY

In my life, I try to live it to both have fun myself, and hopefully enhance the lives of people around me as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Basically my participation in couch surfing is to meet cool new people from around the world and show/be shown what it is really like to live in a city.

I have never been able to host (still live in the family home). However hope to host in 2015 when I have my own place.

I have spend time with other surfers hosted by my friends when at home, as well as grabbing a coffee with couchsurfers while I have been traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have spent time with the surfers hosted by my friends and have really enjoyed hanging out with people from all over the world, and showing them around my home town.

I have only used couchsurfing once traveling, meeting up with a girl, Mira, in Helsinki who was great and showed us some really interesting places we would have otherwise missed.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Iceland I met a half American half french student at the hostel I was staying in. Over drinks we decided to rent a car the next day and explore. The next morning we recruited an Argentinian and a Frenchman and we set off to find a car rental agency. We got a car and set off, seeing the beautiful country side, geysers, volcanos, waterfalls, glaciers. And we even drove 50km along a dirt road that was being closed the next week to become a rally course!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about fishing and camping.

I also know a lot about bikes having built my own, I can even 'true' (straighten) wheels; even owning all the tools.
