CURRENT MISSION

To exist... fully.

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty average looking, which is nice... no chance of falling in love with me at first sight. You can enjoy the surfing experience without the nervousness of fresh lust. AND, my right eye gets all squinty when I get drunk, so even beer goggles aren't a help.
I like to think I am fairly intellengent, but then everyone thinks that, and I've met my share of morons, so who knows...
I am not a funny person. I am tedious and excessively boring. I occasionally enjoy ironic sarcasm though.

PHILOSOPHY

You do You,
Imma just do mine. --Jean-Paul Sartre... or Kanye West.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not sure yet. I am new to the community. I hope to be CSer of the year by the time I get the hang of it though, so keep a look out for the plaque.

No plaque?
Screw it then.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nada todavia

Interests

Reading, writing, movies, and music. (obviously)
Pubbin, clubbin, drinkin, and eatin (claro)
Hiking, Swimming, Scuba diving, Surfing, and snowboarding (when out of Trinidad... its hard to do in the tropics)
Occasionally toking and pondering the vast tapestry of reality. (whoa...what?)
Still... few things beat a good conversation with some good coffee, tea, wine, beer, rum, mate, or hand-rolled cigarettes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Pushkar at sunrise; Diving the Andamans from a canoe; Petting sharks; Riding Elephants; peeing on a volcano; Hiking a glacier.

I've been lucky to have had an interesting life.

Teach, Learn, Share

Apparently, studies show that bees communicate with each other using complex dances to show the exact location of flowers from the hive. These dances also correlate with 6 dimensional mathematical equations, leading some scientists to believe that bees are able to tap into some higher quantum level that we cannot access.

(I like bugs)
