About Me

CURRENT MISSION

spread the love

ABOUT ME

The names Eric, how ya doin? Im a fan of frenzy, preferably friendly frenzy. I love music, and play piano as well as sing. I'm a huge sports fan, my favorites being baseball, basketball, rugby, Aussie rules football, and good ol' American football. I'm a pretty extroverted person, always willing to try new things with new people, because I really just love people in general. Whoever you may be, reading this right now, in case u dont kno, I love you.

PHILOSOPHY

Over the past year I've come to quite a few revelations, the most important being that love is all that matters in life, because love transcended throughout humanity is the answer, plain and simple. We need to make it to a point where each and every person in the world can look at one another and love eachother, thats what I feel is the Second Coming.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a huge fan of travel and I feel that the more you travel, the more connections you make, which facilitates a better understanding of each other. I would love to meet travelers like myself and make such connections, as well as expand my understanding of the world as well as expand the understanding of others, because we are all teachers as well as students on this planet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was in amsterdam with a few friends for spring break. to save money we stayed at a campsite way south of the city center, but it was nice in many ways, it wasnt touristy, we were the only americans there(well technically americans and chinese, a buddy o mine came stateside when he was 5, and his chinese passport as a 5 year old actually got him rejected by dutch immigration, they wouldn't even acknowledge his very recent green card. funny ending tho, they actually changed their minds after and hour and let him on in to beautiful holland!)
everyone stayin there was really just cruisin around europe, doin they own thang, and we made friends with a substantial plethera of them, cool latvians and several happenin canadian cats, with a dash of mexican craziness and whoever else was there, it was happenin, and it was at the bottom of a forest that was sick to bike thru, but a real maze at night, not so fun lol. on top of all that, it was 10 euro a night.

anyhow, we went with our latvian buddies down to a goa trance party, shit was dope! had a ridonkulously good time, and the place closed down at 3, but no body was calling it a night then and there! we, as in all 200 or so patrons of the party, trekked it for like 40 minutes, thru some industrial tundra over a huge bridge, down a long track to a random hill field, where some people set up some amps and a turn table and got the shit goin there. it was beautiful, beers for a euro, laughing gas for 2,crazy shit goin on all around u, good people and a gorgeous sunrise. we musta partied til 10 in the mornin, doin nothin but lovin the world and the people around us, appreciating several moments of something else, something different, something fucking beautiful

Philosophy in general, humanity as it stands and how we can change it, MUSIC!!!!!!!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m very low maintenance and thankful for whatever hospitality you can offer. As a host myself, I always reveled in showing guests around town and going out partying with them. Receiving such an experience would be pretty radical.
