About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to be infinitely connected to life, to feel my feet on the ground, to hear the rhythm and pulse, to taste the richness and salt of the earth, to fill my lungs with the breath of life, to see the world with eyes wide open, to love.

ABOUT ME

I love Couchsurfing because it puts you in close proximity with a perfect stranger that very well could become your good friend after just a few short hours together.

PHILOSOPHY

Live simply so others might simply live
