About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience the world.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel. I was raised traveling around the world as a "gypsy" child and enjoy meeting different cultures and understanding alternative mindsets.

My passion is to give back and change the world. I have worked professionally directing non-profit organizations that better the lives of children for the last 6 years. Whether it's keeping children safe and off the streets in Cambodia or improving the nutrition of children in Nepal and east Africa, I have given my time and energy unconditionally.

I consider myself an artist, musician and engineer, and I love sharing these passions with others and learning new ones.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry, be happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have just discovered Couchsurfing.org, but I'm an experienced surfer of couches. I'm look forward to this "Goldilocks" journey. I'm confident that in the end, no matter what, it will be "just right".

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to this couch surfing site, but not new to couch surfing in general. My greatest couch surfing experience was in 2010 when I surfed throughout Europe for 5 months. I was fund raising for my children's project in Cambodia and organized 23 art exhibitions in 15 countries, raising enough money to take care of 150 street children for an entire year.

Interests

I love music. I am a guitarist and singer/song writer. I have a few songs on Youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h27J2F-zopkhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUgCFw43KjEhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQlJj6mG5PQand SoundCloud: http://soundcloud.com/fbc77

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I have ever done was to run a street children's project in Cambodia for 4 years. The kids changed me forever. Please enjoy the documentary:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BoGVdL51lM

Teach, Learn, Share

I have much more to learn than to teach. Does anyone know how to levitate and fly?
