About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"Manifesting the spiritual in the practical, balancing service and sustainability'

ABOUT ME


I see myself as a balance activist. I work for causes but I am not the G&D type(grim & determined) because I do have fun as life is not just about struggles but also of celebration. My passion is sustainable agriculture within the bigger context of sustainable development.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything makes sense in the context of the Big Picture. Evil is not absolute, it is simply a coach that gives us bigger and higher hurdles to take to overcome our little selves and discover our True Selves.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host, I haven't surfed for a couch though I traveled, I had the "normal" , safe travel. I enjoy hosting though.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted. Truly, a stranger is a friend we have yet to meet.
The experiences were of ONENESS and truly meeting AN OTHER (culture, faith...) and accepting AN OTHER as one's KIN because everyone's blood is red.

There is just so much goodness on this planet, though these do not get normally published.

Interests


Social entrepreneurship
P2P (people-to-people) trade

Music, Movies, and Books

My choices depend on my mood from ethnic drums and flute to classical, to jazz...
I love Joey Ayala's music and Boy Ge'Mendez's

I read a lot of serious stuff but I endorse Citizens of the Cosmos by Beredene Jocelyn for a look at the "Big Picture".

Thomas Greco's Books are enlightening, try "The End of Money and the Future of Civilization"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being able to facilitate the "aha" moment for individuals, its amazing to witness an individual's "I see" (the light) or "Aha!" The eyes just light up, the whole face does change and radiates light.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my little knowledge on anthroposophy and its practical application in agriculture and a bit in homeopathic medicine. . . and more...
