Goes by Berny
(unless formal)
Can NOT host in July, I will be travelling in the UK all month

Finding answers to the questions I was never aware had been asked. Motivated to explore new scenery, chasing experiences and making friends along the way. Not attached to the idea of reaching any specific destination nor goal, simply enjoying myself on my way there

At some point in the future wish to live in a self-sustained manner. Interested in studying horticulture. Believe our planet/humanity can progress as one instead of consuming our natural resources at the current alarming/irrational rate. "Dessert-Dweller". Open-minded, practicing letting-go to welcome what may and will eventually come. Not quite at the level of water, but I try my best to flow

Philosophy:
many but this sums up my approach towards a lot...
In order to live in a peaceful world, You , must first be a world of peace.

"We don't stop playing because we grow old; We grow old because we stop playing"
-George Bernard Shaw

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Genuinely seeking an answer to "How are you?" Care to bring meaning to community

Enjoy meeting new people and certainly agree that the best people to meet are the welI-traveled ones. It's great to hear about the great distances one has gone.

Care to share my home with travelers as well as continue my own traveling

Interests

Staying active, outings into the natural world. running/cycling/climbing
Camping anywhere from mountain peaks to sandy beaches even dry desert valleys.
Music/Art Festivals have been my greater interest lately. Now I wish to travel and explore the world as I feel it keeps getting smaller.
Nice cold pint or a warm cup of tea, it's all a delight to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Although known to talk a lot when driven by topic of conversation, I have learned to listen and practice observation more than express personal opinion.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Passion for living and enjoying every moment to its fullest. Can help clean and wash dishes, not a great cook but will gladly be a critic(kidding, but i do love sampling new foods). If your car may have issues I can lend my expertise, possibly fix it. I can be a dance partner or an ear to share your stories with.
