About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of world while my mind is still young and spongy.

ABOUT ME

I'm a lazy dreamer with a pair of itchy feet.
Those are pretty much the only labels I feel comfortable with :P

PHILOSOPHY

Laugh loud and often, give EVERYTHING a second look (no matter how dumb), don't dismiss "crazy" ideas, treat everyone as your friend unless they give you reason not to, and most importantly, keep moving. That last one is the secret to happiness, because I promise, if you just keep moving, eventually you'll find something good :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a full time traveler, so I guess I'll just be surfing for now. I'm really to young and poor to be doing any hosting, but I'm sure that will change before too long :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had nothing but AWESOME experiences thus far, and even though I'm not a very active member, I'm very happy to be part of the community.

Interests

I really do like to keep an open mind and take an interest in everything. But that sounds lame, so as an example I'll say music, tattoos, Quantum Mechanics, learning about different cultures & beliefs, motorbikes, experiencing new things and, of course, travelling.
I am pretty much always able to find a topic of common interest with pretty much everyone I meet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen a lot of things I didn't even believe existed, but my favourite story is when I was in Pakistan, and I met a genuine, real life GENIE!

...(sort of!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I've seen all kinds of things on my travels and I'm always more than happy to spin a few yarns for anyone who wants to hear some.
Like I keep saying, I'm very easily impressed, so if you know any skill at all I'll be a very eager student.
