ABOUT ME

"Madness does not come by breaking out, but by giving in; by settling down in some dirty, little, self-repeating circle of ideas; by being tamed."
- G.K. Chesterton (Manalive)

PHILOSOPHY

we're getting deep here on CS. my quest is towards love...the thing behind ever set of eyes that i meet, pumping through every blade of grass, every sunrise and sunset...in the wind and in all creation. so i suppose my quest is to open my eyes and see, and to experience love by taking the ultimate risk - loving as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i love the places i travel and the people i meet whilst surfing various couches. and when i'm home, i love having traveling folks come and stay. it forces me to remember what's really important. it's definitely the best way to bring the traveling spirit back into your everyday life.

Interests

traveling, the sounds of languages, red wine, dark chocolate, dark beer, people, things i don't understand, problem solving, theories, salt water, sunlight, rain and snow, thunder and lightning, freckles, being mobile, sharing moments with someone else

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i'm so easily awed...this would take hours.

Teach, Learn, Share

slackline - kinda like tightrope, but better because you can take it anywhere. and i do...so probably if you run into me you'll get a chance at it, too!

i want to learn anything and everything (really) you can teach me. learning is my life-blood.
