About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To say everyday, "I'm living the dream!"

ABOUT ME

As a child I've visited South America and Europe with my parents. Seeing different cultures, people, and respecting these differences has always been normal for me.

After my schooling I had to endure many years of corporate life, which totally didn't jive with me. Not enough playtime. The only cool caveat was I got to live and brethe how cool San Francisco and Northern California really is. Now...I am very free with the world as my playground:

PHILOSOPHY

Take chances, get outside your comfort zone, and always keep on smiling

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted once and crashed on tons of people's couches, just not through couchsurfing. So I think I've participated in principle so far :-) Either way, I like living the philosophy of CS.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies rock. Without music I would go insane. If it's got a beat you can dance to, then all the better. Books, I read whatever I can get a hands on, which unfortunately is sometimes crap at some book exchanges. The beauty of it though, is when you get those gems of a book, it's like the words are being written into your soul.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking the Appalachian Trail. It was a dream of mine 6 years before I could do it, and the 6 months it took to hike the 3500 km trail was too cool to describe.

Teach, Learn, Share

Whatever one is willing to teach, I am willing to learn. Yoga is one thing I wish I knew more of. I can help people out with math...and of course to share a beer with.
