ABOUT ME

http://instagram.com/aidensins

Im thoughtful, compassionate, sincere(even though i say so myself) and sometimes silly.
I am enthusiastic about life, meeting different people, learning about other cultures. I am joyous.

PHILOSOPHY

'Love every person until they show you a reason not to'
'Find your comfort zone and leave it'
'Be kind to yourself'

I believe in treating others with loving kindness. I live in the present and try not to concern myself with the past.
When something scares me (swimming) i love to confront that fear. I respond to my impulses, its bad for your health and sanity not to.
I think its important in life to be grateful and appreciate what we have. We all have so much to be thankful for.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

making more friends to promote the idea of the cs!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

very well! I have met & host a lot of lovely, funny people and i was also surfing myself. it was always a great experience! Couchsurfing is a great concept & community.

On my last journey I stayed almost the whole time with CS hosts. It was such a unique and amazing experience and I just can hope to do the same for other travelers.

Interests

Good conversation.
Being positive in the face of adversity.
I love laughter, making people smile is important to me. Good (and bad) jokes.
Getting to know different people. I am fascinated by peoples little quirks and oddities. Being unique is beautiful and something to be embraced.
Behaving like a responsible and mature adult (sometimes) :P

Anything that connects me with nature, sculpting with clay, being in the forest, sitting on the earth at a fire, swimming in the ocean.

Wild swimming is my passion: rivers, lakes or the ocean(colder is better!)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love sci fi movies: star wars, the alien quadrilogy, blade runner, matrix, dark city, akira, 12 monkeys, donnie darko, brazil. I also love trashy space movies like independence day and armageddon and then just plain old trashy movies from my teenage years including anything amanda bynes related. I am open to all movies though and love talking anything film-related.

Music : love alt and indie music!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learning to ride a bike (again) on the most dangerous road in the world,
Snorkelling in the clearest river in the world,
Sunset in tibet,
New Years Eve on Beach with 2 thousand people

Teach, Learn, Share

I am spiritual. Personal growth is something I strive to achieve.I am the best listener I have 'ever been' so take advantage of my ears. I have particular interests in Buddhism, meditation, Ayurveda and yoga. Sculpting breadmaking, fixing things with my hands and singing badly. I cook a bit and might be able to teach you something.

I am open to learning anything you could teach me about being organised!
