About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Coming to know as many minds around the world as possible to step closer to universal truth instead of localised "truth" and convenient perspectives

ABOUT ME

I hunger to learn, and love to laugh. I'm endlessly fascinated by the stories of people everywhere, and think I'm open-minded to a fault. I have a way of keeping super busy (and apologize that my work day has to come first when I couch-host :)

PHILOSOPHY

We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just trying to make a big place like Earth feel a little cozier

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted and surfed and they played out beautifully!

Interests

Language, cuisine, art (I paint and draw) & art history, music, films, martial arts/physicality, and travel (obviously!)...I like hearing about the passions of others because when someone shows passion for something, I'm automatically evoked

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
