About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world, meet it's people and bask in the inspiration it offers!

ABOUT ME

About me... I currently live Kaohsiung,Taiwan. Just moved here in fact. Me in General, I'm a very relaxed individual who loves music, laughter and adventure. I like meeting people from all walks of life and I hope when I eventually reach the "great divide" I will have left this world a better person having met them.

PHILOSOPHY

The life you lead is the life you reflect onto others.
Man's greatest achievement and maybe his eventual downfall was learning that woods true value was not that it burns, but that it floats.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Try to use couch surfing on my travels and I've just started hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with very nice couple in Maryland named Bruce and Anna then another couple, Becca and Perry in Virginia, both are very involved in hosting and surfing themselves and got me thinking more about being apart of this. Both experiences were great!! Super nice, kind hearted people who I hope to meet again some day. Other than that not much. Hopefully more soon though!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Toured across Canada with a band a couple times, making many stops along the way, met quite a few interesting people, now friends, if only for such a brief moment. Volunteered in Angola and Mozambique for 6 months which was unbelievably inspiring.

Teach, Learn, Share

There is so much to Teach, Learn and Share. I guess my contribution would be to encourage people to follow their hearts, take risks, make mistakes, acknowledge them but move on with out serious regret
(situation pending though), get out there see what you'd like to see, do what you'd like to do, live out your dreams, and be the person you are, not who you want to be, changing what you don't like about yourself for the better, for you and your own well being . Smile
