About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world and experience as many people and places as is possible in one life

ABOUT ME

Open-minded fun living spirit with an uncanny knack for synchronictiy. Love to meet people and exchange philosophies and experiences. Travelling this beautiful planet and experiencing all the joy that life has to offer is my main passion, the very thought of being lost in a new country makes me smile in anticipation.

PHILOSOPHY

Live the dream instead of dream your life away.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stunning, incredible oppertunity to meet beautiful souls and immerse ourselves in different cultures and see life through other peoples eyes. I highly recommend the couchsufing experience to everybody.

Interests

Love to be active, mountain climbing, camping, canoeing, snowboarding, tennis, squash & golf. Music festivals and concerts are a wonderful expression of love and happiness that I share with who ever I can. Sharing philosophy and friendship with the eternal souls I am lucky enough to cross paths with on my journey. Mountains anywhere, beaches everywhere and most of all a blood red African sun spilling its golden rays over the savanna.
