CURRENT MISSION

An epic journey through time and space in search of the ultimate truth

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty cool... I guess. I can hurdle 1,000 mm tall barriers in a single jump, spell most four letter words correctly, and one time I hit a triple in an intramural softball game! Besides these stellar credentials, I'm a modest down-to-earth person who enjoys a good adventure and insightful people to share it with.

I love getting outside and staying active. I ride my bike a lot! I try not to get too caught up in worldly possessions. If someone came today and stole everything I own, it wouldn't bother me too much.

I recently moved to Santa Clara for a job in the Solar Industry. I am passionate about what I do and sincerely hope to promote a more harmonious relation between humans and the planet (especially the way we extract energy from it).

PHILOSOPHY

If you never get lost, you will never be found.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate by putting my couch up for grabs for those who need a place to crash and hoping that some will return the favor when I'm traveling. I also try to get involved in CS events and activities that go down around phoenix. It's a great way to meet people and get acquainted to a new city!

Interessi

I'm keen on: bonfires, hiking, board sports, originality, bike rides, fresh air, quantum physics, creativity, graffiti, swimming, traveling, astronomy, kayaking, solar power...

Not a big fan of: TV, strip malls, close-minded folks, car alarms (and horns), disposable cutlery, arrogance...

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I often find that the most amazing places I travel to are not the must-see-tourist-spots you read about in the guide books, but the strange places I get lost in trying to find these places.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I work in the solar industry, I picked up some Mandarin while living in China, I taught English, I studied physics, and I love to share and contemplate upon pretty much anything relevant to human existence...
