CURRENT MISSION:

Having my passport fully stamped by 2023.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet different people and learn about their customs could be the very definition of awesome.

Interests

Enjoying life by visiting weird countries, indulging dark chocolate and collecting frequent flyer miles.

I'm also very fond of history, photography, writing, the Arctic, passport stamps, bridges, meteorology, folk music and ice hockey. Or just having a beer with friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

Everything that comes with some kind of character.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'll go with five:

- Getting lost in the old town of Harar, Ethiopia.
- Sitting at the castle hill in Ljubljana, Slovenia, watching an incredible thunderstorm.
- Visiting the amazingly grey and dull cities of Nikel and Norilsk in northern Russia.
- Walking the wooden streets of Kampong Ayer, a part of Brunei's capital Bandar Seri Begawan.
- Everything that has to do with New Zealand!
