ABOUT ME
I am really new to CS, I don't really know how the whole thing works yet....so please bare with me...I'm new to BC and I'm looking for new friends to enjoy the good things in life with, and experience this exotic province. It will be great to hang out, get some fancy drinks, check out some patios, dance, explore exotic music, foreign movies, intellectual conversation, and have fun...ABOUT ME: As a person I like to think of myself as cheerful, confident, respectful, ambitious, and an explorer...at the same time, I'm a very humble man. I believe in mutual enhancement. I love to learn new things and teach other some skills I have. I enjoy and cherish good company and I'm always there for my friends and loved ones. I always try to keep busy doing something. Oh, and I LOVE to cook and travel. I have visited a few west African countries, many part of the USA and Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Jamaica.
PHILOSOPHY
GOALS: I am an engineer and I am looking to continue my career into the energy sector, engineering consulting and management. I also went to business school as I have an inclination for entrepreneurship and business...to what capacity, I'm not sure yet but I'm exploring many ideas. I want to continue to help those around me, to achieve their goals.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will open many cultural doors for you, and I hope you can tell me more about where you are from and your culture...I enjoy learning and teaching languages, I am fluent in French, English and Spanish.....I can also show you a few latin dance steps...
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I am new to this website, it was recommended by a friend so I want to try it out.
Interests
WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT: I am product of many cultures, I was raised in west Africa, I was exposed to french culture, I have a slight British accent, and for more than a decade now, I have been living in many part of Canada. Socially and musically, I immersed myself in Latin culture and dance. I am an avid Salsa dancer and a fairly good teacher. I speak fluent French, English and Spanish and I enjoy stimulating and witty conversations. I love to engage in all kind of topics, from cultural exploration, through development issues, and geopolitics.
