A famous asshole once wrote: "you are defined by what you struggle for."

After many years of frustrating failure I have now discovered, that's right, the secret, wait for it, to making the perfect American fluffy pancake.

Also I struggle with rent. It's a burden.

I'm someone who is happy to just go with things and see what happens. Love exploring, love putting myself in new situations, love horsing around, laughing, being silly and try to reserve my seriousness only for things that really matter to me. Life's short and existence is meaningless, so I try to have a few good laughs with a few good people while doing a few good things along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's always more fun to share with everyone.

Don't eat my sandwich though.
