Overview
About Me
New to Lisbon, Portugal. Moved here in Jan and am hoping to stay for a long time:)
What I want in life... Is to be happy. To do and try out everything life has to offer so that when the day comes I can say that I really lived.
I enjoy simplicity. The simplest things are often the best:)
Play, enjoy, have fun. Laugh as much as possible. Try not to take life too seriously:)
Values? RESPECT! Gosh guys, this is such a big one. Traveling 3 years streight in different cultures and also the fact that I come from a mix background myself just makes me even more reassured in my opinon (hopefully not just mine) that we all really need to respect each other. I can be Buddhist, you vegan another person have a 3rd eye tattooed on their forhead. None of that matters. You dont need to like it. Or understand it.. But hey, if you stricke a conversation you might just learn why a person is the way he/she is.
One of my best friends once said this: "it doesn.t cost anything to be kind, so why not be it"
Rocketscience right? ;)
Happiness is an inside job.
Stuff I can relate to:
Whatever the mind of man can conceive, it can achieve. W. Clement Stone
All personal achievement starts in the mind of the individual. Your personal achievement starts in your mind. The first step is to know exactly what your problem, goal or desire is.
W. Clement Stone
Man, alone, has the power to transform his thoughts into physical reality; man, alone, can dream and make his dreams come true.
Napoleon Hill
The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a person's determination.
Tommy Lasorda
Be helpful. When you see a person without a smile ,give him yours.
Zig Ziglar
Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus
The purpose of our lives is to be happy.
Dalai Lama
You create your own universe as you go along.
Winston Chruchill
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I surf and I host. And the more I do this the more addicting it gets:)
