Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Learn as much as I can, as fast as I can
ABOUT ME
I'm a nerd and a glorified 5-year-old. I'm still workin' on making my life more interesting, but hey, it's a work in progress. I'm always looking into ways on how to become more cool. So if you have any advice, please, let me know.
PHILOSOPHY
Although it may sound selfish, I am just trying to learn as much as I can, from every place I visit and every person I meet. And maybe along the way, I could occasionally be obliged to return the favor.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Occasional surfer. Still waiting to host for the first time.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Surfed around Canada and met some cool people in New York surfing from different parts of the world. Will possibly be taking a loooong, bus/train trip to Cape Horn next summer and will hopefully be surfing a bit then.
Interests
Reading and writing, although I don't do nearly enough of the latter. Always looking to talk about something I don't know...which is still at this point pretty much everything.
