About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience and learn as much as possible while I'm here on earth. Also living healthily and in harmony with the earth. "You gotta treat yo mama with respect."-John Butler Trio. We have to take care of Mother Earth.

ABOUT ME

I am an adventurer. I love learning, mostly from experience. I have always loved sports and being active, I love being in nature so the combination of the two is amazing therefore I love surfing and hiking. I am also a fanatic dancer, I love all kind of dance. I am spiritual but do not affiliate with any religion, I practice yoga and transcendatal meditation. My dream is to have my own farm one day that I can be living off. Sustainability is the way!

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to find balance and attempting to leave only positive effects whereever I go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love showing people around areas I am familiar with, I love sharing knowledge...I teach surf lessons in Hawaii and enjoy taking tourists to see the real island, good hikes where the tourist normally don´t go and teaching them about the local flora and history. And when I travel I love connecting with new people and sharing my culture and knowledge and learning all I can from them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch surfed in Madrid, Spain. This was my first experience with an actual couch surfer, but I am alwasy meeting people in my travels and making new friends. I enjoy traveling without plans so honestly I´m not the best at using this site to find places to stay but as I travel many times I end up meeting friends and staying with them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many things to say...but waterfalls always take my breath away...Something I feel accomplished about is building a shed out of bamboo, woddle and dob...

Teach, Learn, Share

I have learned a lot about traditional medicines and Hawaiian navigation...I teach surfing as a profession and also to my friends. I love sharing any knowledge I might have including my experiences living in Latin America. I always travel with string for making jewelry and pass along what I make and I teach people how to weaving bracelets.
