About Me

CURRENT MISSION

impossible

ABOUT ME

Ask my friends and they'd say all nice things, like I'm a cool guy; trustworthy, a good friend, someone who's never let them down, funny, etc. This is why they are my friends.
But if you asked my Best Friends, they would probably say I'm an absolute tw*t, that's probably why they are my best friends and I love them so much.
;)

PHILOSOPHY

waiting is dying

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Could be a beer/wine/coffee/lunch/dinner out, a few stories about the place and advice if you need.
This is more or less I'd like if I visit you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not much.
Visited couple of places, hosted a few people :)

Interests

I love Monday mornings. (seriously)
Also, I love watching the sunrise/sunset on a clear day, that makes me smile every single time.

Education.
Buddhism.

Music, Movies, and Books

good ones, I reckon.
sometimes the not so good ones, though,
but usually the good ones, for sure.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1.Running down on the stairs from a half built estate block with a friend when we were about 13 (being still alive and friends some 25 years later, tho)
2.An encounter with sharks while snorkelling at the Great Barrier Reef a couple of years ago. (I don't know what can be more frightening than these monsters swimming towards you..)
3.To realise how small the world is. (e.g. there are friends wherever you go)

Teach, Learn, Share

teaching:
now English, both as a paid teacher and volunteer.

learning:
How to teach English to kids
Burmese
And anything I don't know but interests me.
