Save the Planet

ABOUT ME

I have no idea how I got here, but it sure is beautiful. I think I may have been a sea turtle in my last life, but now I'm just trying to determine the best way for humans to exist on the earth without harming our gracious mother. . . setting the best example I possibly can. Being the change...

PHILOSOPHY

Don't take anything seriously but yourself, and include all other people and nature in your definition of your SELF. Help as many people as possible, and always keep an open mind, because the only constant is change.A Bodhisattva is the highest form of living organism, and many exist as other beings besides humans. The goal of reaching enlightenment for the good of all beings, can include no ego.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to travel and I love meeting travelers, so...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met and exchanged so many serendipitous moments, laughs, hugs, and good times through couchsurfing already, and I am looking forward to many more in the future. . .

Interests

I have been a skateboarder for about twelve years, the past few have been very fruitful riding for The Beach Zone, Powell skateboards, and Bones wheels. I also enjoy melding molten glass into sculptures, and I am very adamant about creating a sustainable future for the younger generation that will inherit our mistreated planet. . .

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Grandma's Boy, What the Bleep-down the rabbit hole, and the Future of Food, Dying to Have Known, all for different reasons. I dig the Greatful Dead, Led Zeppelin, and Bob Dylan. I must suggest you read The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight or any of Thom Hartmann's other publications, Siddartha by Herman Hesse, and An Open Heart by Tenzin Gyatso, the fourteenth Dali llama. . . and if you really wanna go deep, get 'Entering the Diamond Way' by Lama Ole' Nydhal

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to the cannabis cup 2006. . . I won the ES game of skate and was awarded the opportunity to compete in the Maloof Money Cup, the world's largest skateboarding competition. I lived and studied in LA for one year studying film and skateboarding practice. I am a member of the Sustainable Global Leadership Alliance, and a part of the SUST program at UNM, where I received my bachelor in Philosophy. I've been to Europe, Scotland, Mexico, every Hawaiian island, India, Nepal, Tokyo, Singapore, and Cuba. . . But I think the most amazing thing Iv seen is the beauty and compassion reflected in the eyes of every human being. . .

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy meeting someone who can show me a better or more organic way of doing something, or someone who has a different view on a certain topic that might complete or contradict my own ideas about it. I have many philosophical theories and ideas to share as well as many practically applicable ways to be more sustainable and leave behind a smaller footprint. . .
