About Me

CURRENT MISSION.

I strive to Live with dignity, love myself and others, laugh, and find great joy and beauty in my surroundings.

Philosophy is a way of life.

I believe that life is full of possibility of abundance and adventure. My main priority in life is connecting with other people, having fun and meaningful relationships/experiences. Living healthily and with purpose is what I am about.

The meaning of my life is to live well and find ways to help others live well, which means supporting, motivating and sharing with them what has worked for me, and finding out what works for them!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The good life is, as far as I can tell, defined by the quality of relationships and interactions I have. I believe that there are good people out there that want to share life and those are the people I want to meet while I explore the world. And in return I would like to offer my couch to those same free spirited, open minded and adventurous people.

Meeting new people is the Spice of life, and it’s way more important than getting a free place to stay.
