About Me

A dedicated traveler seeking to meet a lot of awesome people on my trip around the whole globe.

Went on a solo backpacking world trip and now I'm exploring different places in Europe during days off.

I decided to stay in the country where I studied, so I am living and working in Scotland for a Member of Parliament.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories from a lot of different places... Some crazy, some boring ;) and good company 👍. Love to sit down and chat over shared home-cooked meals and a drink even though I don’t really know much about German cuisine.
