ABOUT ME

@EfraimIP (twitter)
efraimip.blogspot.com (blog)

In short, im just your typical world citizen.
For lack of a better label.

Grew up a bit in europe, but mostly in the southwest US. Since I was 13 or so been regularly moving to different places, meeting different people, cultures, languages...and learning to do new things. Its given me a pretty wide and greatly appreciated view of the world.

Couchsurfed through Europe in 2010 summer which was a blast. Before that also couchsurfed in 2006-2008 all through central america, and parts of south america. Which was more than a blast!

PHILOSOPHY

I wrote a book on this subject ;)
