About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To discover more of who I am and what I want to do in life

ABOUT ME

A bit of late bloomer in life. Finally, in my 30s and 40s I am beginning to think about personal growth and what I want in my life. I am easy-going and enjoy conversation - with a few people but not such a extroverted party person. I enjoy outdoor activities, like to eat fairly healthy foods and do moderate exercise. And I enjoy traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

To become more genuine, to love others, to become more creative and to be more courageous.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to CouchSurfing. Maybe, when I buy my own place in the country-side of Hawaii, I would love to offer my couch and the Hawaiian experience to Surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just one. I joined a friend who couchsurfed in Haleiwa, Hawaii, on the North Shore. The couple we stayed with was so generous and open with the little floor space that they had. They even let us use their stand-up paddle boards in Waimea Bay where we saw dolphins. All because of the aloha from our CouchSurfing hosts!

Interests

I enjoy biking, traveling, being with friends around good food and a few drinks, and surfing.

Music, Movies, and Books

I haven't watched too many movies lately. I listen to anything that sounds good and my favorite series of books are Conversations with God.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Paddle-Surfed among pods of dolphins and jumped off the rock in Waimea Bay, North Shore, Hawaii. Breathtaking! Thanks Dean.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to inspire people to follow their passions and dreams. And want to learn from people who have expanded their boundaries and comfort zones.
