About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To get the most of this few days...
ABOUT ME
I am a honest and sincere guy.
My friends describe me as "very friendly and responsible person". However, this might just be the illusion, don't put much faith on the responsible part...
Personally, I like being with friends having fun, or with my mate in a romantic candle light dinner. I am not always happy and this might be because:
- my work;
- my work;
- my work;
- the weather;
- the world;
PHILOSOPHY
Everything is material for the seed of happiness, if you look into it with inquisitiveness and curiosity. The future is completely open, and we are writing it moment to moment. There always is the potential to create an environment of blame – or one that is conducive to loving-kindness. (not mine, words beautifully written by Pema Chödrön)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I love to host as I love to surf. Meeting like-minded people enhances my knowledge, humility, happiness and self-confidence.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It has been great to receive people from all around the world. I really believe that we can learn a bit from everyone, and that God's not playing with couch surfing, so if you're interested in surfing our couch maybe it's because you have something to teach me! Actually, till now I've always learned something from every surfer we had here.
I really hate those parasites sending just copy-paste requests. Couchsurfing is not a free hotel. If you really want to come, please try to guess my favorite color. You don't have to be right, I just want to be sure that you had read this.
Everyone is welcome to send a couchrequest, but we are specially open for families, people with kids, gays or lesbians...
