CURRENT MISSION

To gain as much perspective and life experience as possible. Spending at least six months backpacking in South America from the 30th of July will be one step towards this.
*as of 03 of December I arrived back home making that trip 2 1/2 years in South America

ABOUT ME

I find self-narratives are rarely representative so I'll keep things short: Interested in Neurobiology, Medicine, Archeo-Astronomy, Travelling to the backwaters of countries and embracing as much essence of a place I can, Music and meeting complete strangers of foreign cultures,in knowing that it can often spawn some of the most valuable experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe nobody knows the answers and all doctrine is at best inspired speculation - empty noise which can ring a tune only to those that truly want to immerse themselves in a world of boundaries. If there's something on the other side, then it's gonna be alien to what we can feasibly conceive. For what we know is true simply down on our local planet, adventures call from infinite places. It's up to you to service your life with the attainment of wonder and experience that feels intuitive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have met some awesome people hosting and hope to meet a bunch more if anyone's kind enough to have me as a guest when I travel South America from July 2015!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted a couple of British folks - Martin and Finn. At first strangers who sent me requests to chill out, now considered likely life-long mates who I look forward to meeting up with when I travel to England! Also hosted a few Germans and a French girl -- all interesting people and have led to more inspiration to go backpacking myself.
