CURRENT MISSION Share positive energy and smiles with those around me:-) ABOUT ME I am a nature-loving adventurous individual, who is curious about practically everything and enjoys traveling, reading books, following the news, swimming, volunteering for good causes, spending time outdoors, playing sports, taking MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses), meeting new people, learning about new cultures, saving the world one step at a time...

As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. … We need not wait to see what others do.”

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I just joined Couchsurfing and would love to become an active participant in the future! Though unfortunately my hosting ability is very limited as I live in a small apartment with 2 roommates... COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE No real couchsurfing experiences yet as I am new to the community, but my active couch-surfer friend dragged me to a local party once and it was a lot of fun to meet the awesome people there, who couchsurf and host a lot!
Music, Movies, and Books
I listen to all types of music depending on mood :) Same applies to movies ( though not a big blockbuster fan)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I dove off pretty scary cliffs in Hawaii once, if you don't jump far enough there you pretty much land on rocks... Def one of the most dangerous things I've ever done.
