ABOUT ME

Hey There!
I’m Danny, a college student who can’t make up his mind on what to major in. I’m the happiest when I’m on the road, traveling without an itinerary or a certain destination. I plan on making my way around the globe, making new friends along the way. I’m here to learn and to share. I concur with Jean-Paul Sartre’s philosophy on existentialism; it lays out as its basic concept that we exist first and then our essence is developed; by this he means that there is no fixed human nature by which we can explain our actions. We are born as a blank slate and afterwards define our existence by the choices and actions we make and how well we embody the values that we acknowledge as important in our lives. I love meeting new people; specially fellow travelers so if you’re planning to visit Las Vegas, drop me a line and I’ll be happy to buy you a drink and show you around.
Peace out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Friends and family are always first choice when it comes to accommodations; I rather sleep on a couch and mingle with the locals than stay in a hotel and follow the herds of tourists.
