I’m Herman, a globetrotter with a passion for exploring new cultures, meeting new people, and making memories that last a lifetime. Born and raised in Congo, Brazzaville but raised in the United Kingdom, I’ve ventured through Italy, Romania, Germany, France and Austria each journey bringing its own unique story.

I love the idea of connecting with locals to get the real essence of every place I visit. Whether it's sharing a meal, stories, or exploring hidden gems, I believe that the heart of every culture is best experienced through its people. When I’m not on the road, you can find my photography, reading books, hiking, travelling and vlogging always ready to capture the beauty of everyday moments.

On my Couchsurfing profile, you’ll find a friendly face eager to exchange travel tales and tips. Whether you’re looking to crash on my couch or just grab a coffee, feel free to reach out. Let’s make our travel experiences richer by sharing them!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined Couchsurfing to connect with like-minded individuals who share my enthusiasm for exploration and cultural immersion. This platform offers more than just a place to stay; it provides a unique opportunity to form genuine connections and learn from locals firsthand. I believe that staying with a host adds an invaluable dimension to my travels, allowing me to experience destinations as part of a community rather than as a tourist.

Additionally, I'm passionate about sharing my own culture and experiences with others. Hosting travellers from around the world or meeting up for a coffee gives me a chance to see my own city through fresh eyes and make lasting friendships.
