CURRENT MISSION

To be happy and to always love what I am doing. Strive to always affect some kind of creativity and change in myself and the world around me. To not be self-obsorbed but to do the things I want to do as much as I can.

ABOUT ME

There is lots about me (see some of the stuff below), but the best way to find out would be to hang out with me. I'm much more complex (as is everyone)then what I can write in a few sentences that always end of sounding a little distilled and trite. I'm actually really nice, welcoming, and very excited about most everything. Looking forward to meeting you and finding out about you as well.

PHILOSOPHY

Find the beauty in life. Take your life seriously (but not too seriously!) and find those moments you feel most alive and try to stay in them. Dont spend too much time working if you can, but dont waste money or time on stuff that is useless. Live simply, give to people, animals, and the earth. Realize you are here for a really short time so dont be petty, egotistical, or boring. The world/sociey we live in is not my ideal, is in fact, a very brutal place, but I try to balance fighting/changing that, with living the way that I want, somewhat outside that with my own goals and dreams. While this may seen like Im not responsible for it, I actually feel a a very intense duty to the earth and try to live in accordance to that feeling, that honor towards life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am definitly willing to help anyone out. Friends always say I am really helpful to anyone and I firmly believe that being that way, showing reciprocity and being willing to give, is a huge part of enjoying life, people, and experiences. Right now things are very up in the air for me, but I am still open to what someone would ask of me...a place to stay, company, showing them around.. just ask and I will let you know!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had heard of couchsurfing but only vaguely until I picked up a hitchhiker on my way to California. He was really excited about it and we had really good conversations in general. I have done couchsurfing 4 times now, all in Argentina and they were all really great experiences.
