Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Loving on people and learning from them.
ABOUT ME
First of all I would like to make it clear that I fully support the CS Project, I think it is a great way of getting to know people and bonding with brothers and sisters from all over the world. I don't intend to find a place only to sleep and shower, I want to know you and more about your life and culture. Hope to make lifelong friendships out of this.
I enjoy getting to know people and learning from them, going places and interacting with locals, people watching is always fun... I'm very spontaneous and talkative! :)
PHILOSOPHY
Accepting and Loving others is my philosophy. Ive been loved and accepted unconditionally through Christ and I want to love others the same way. It doesn't matter if people share or not my beliefs, it is not my job to change anyone, just loving and accepting them for who they are.
