About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to have good time in Hong Kong ,meet good people and travel the world

ABOUT ME

Adventurer,multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, curious and multi-life. I'm an experience seeker.

PHILOSOPHY

I left home looking for new experiences and to try different lifes, I've been on the road since march of 2004.I think I don't like having stable life and having obligations:) I like being on the move, I like changes!! I've learned my happiness isn't determined by money or thinks like that, I trust in life.I want to have a different life style being a long term traveler, I dont like the life model having a stable life, career, wasting time thinking of a way to buy a house and those things that destroy life.:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to make people feel comfortable in my house. I love hosting people here and also like to show the city around. The best CS meetings I attended was in Sao Paulo, Moscow, Sydney and Prague. I like to go to the meetings when I am on the road traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted people in my house in Barcelona and Dublin, I was lucky meeting great people and I do my best to keep in touch with all my guests. I'm back in Dublin after almost 3 years working and traveling around the world so I want to host people, it will help me a lot settling again in Ireland.

Interests

Traveling, it's my life. people, cultures,sports, geography,documentary photography,international relations,music etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music!! In Ireland I started listening to things like Amos Lee, Damien Rice, Paddy Casey, David Gray, The Frames but I used to listen all the classic rock 'n roll from 70s like Deep Purple,Zeppelin, Rainbow etc. I also like all the bands from 80s and 90s.
I like the books from Robert Fisk, he is a British journalist who covers middle east and he is a kind of inspiration to me.
I like the films like Into the wild, I think I like because the way it shows the people the guy meets on the road. Well, people are always important to me! Happiness is only real when shared.. I like it!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, lots of things,places and people I met since I left home.What I am feeling now traveling is addiction and every time when I come back from one trip I think about another one but it is a good thing I think.I am very curious.
In 2001 I traveled 27 days around South America, my life changed after this experience. In 2004 I went to Canada to learn english and after that I never wanted to return home so here I am.
Its hard to say one place but after traveling in the middle east traveling become much more fascinating. I've been to fantastic places in South East Asia and Australia but I think my favorite countries are in the middle east like Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and Syria.

Teach, Learn, Share

For me 9 years living abroad were important and also the different situations I have experienced were important as well, especially hard jobs.
Well, I play the guitar and could teach the basics..;)
I can give you some nice travel advices or help you with a nice travel itineray if you want.My dreams are always related with travel and people, I'd love to share this with my guests.
Please do not expect from me being a good dancer because I am not like the brazilian samba dancer;) I am also don't know capoeira or things like that.)hahah
