CURRENT MISSION

follow a map to its edges, and keep giong. forgo the plans, trust my instincts. let curiosity be my guide. i want to change hemispheres. sleep with unfamiliar stars and let the journey unfold before me.

ABOUT ME

very much an extrovert. happy, relaxed, can make the best out of most situations :)

PHILOSOPHY

"the best revenge? happiness. because nothing drives people more crazy than seeing someone actually having a good fucking life."

"if you really think the environment is less important than the economy try holding your breath while you count your money."
-Dr. Guy McPherson

"character is higher than intellect. a great soul will be strong to live as well as strong to think."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

"when you stop doing things for fun you might as well be dead."
-Hemingway

"being the best is great. you're the number one. being unique is greater. you're the only one."
-Wilson Kanadi

"we are very good at preparing to live, but not very good at living. we know how to sacrifice ten years for a diploma, and we are willing to work very hard to get a job, a car, a house, and so on... but we have difficulty remembering that we are alive in the present moment, the only moment there is for us to be alive."
-Thich Nhat Hanh

"we need some time to escape into open solitude's, into aimlessness, into the moral holiday of running some pure hazard, in order to sharpen the edge of life, to taste hardship, and to be compelled to work desperately for a moment at no matter what. so, embrace you wanderlust and seek that part of yourself that you don’t know exists. look at the sky, dance with the moon and smile at the sun."
-George Santayana

"one's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things."
-Henry Miller

"twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the things you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. catch the trade winds in your sails. explore. dream. discover."
-Mark Twain

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed in Europe and it was too fun! I met amazing people along the way and I hope fellow surfers can say the same about me when they stay here. I host because new eyes on the city make me appreciate it all over again.

Interessen

I spend most of my time at work and in my free time I'll play golf, surf, a little beach volleyball, make a sad attempt at playing the piano... and of course go out ;) food and drinks are where it's at for me, so if you're a foodie like myself, Charleston is a prime location to visit.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

pretty open-minded when it comes to these. love any and all, honestly.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

studying abroad and my cross-country roadtrip have been my best experiences so far. I only hope I can do that much traveling again in the future. Meeting people hosting and surfing has been an excellent way to keep me focused on this goal.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

While traveling, pay attention to the people you meet and the way they make you feel, they are what will make a lasting impression.
