Mexico, Europe, and now southeast Asia. Such a blessing to be out here.

I love music, rap music and kirtan perhaps the most. Basketball is my main sport and I enjoy different uses of the body like qi gong, tai chi, yoga. Anybody want to hoop at the local court? I'm a bit fascinated with meditation, what it means, where it takes one. Some comedy makes me laugh quite hard.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The primary and foremost reason I'm on Couchsurfing is to surf couches. Which means to receive the opportunity to travel the world on a very low budget. The great thing about CS is that it enables people who aren't wealthy to discover the miracle of travel. And I look forward to paying it forward when I'm set up to host.

The secondary reason is to get a glimpse into the life of a local, which adds a priceless dimension in experiencing a different country and culture.
