About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Kick back, relax, learn!

ABOUT ME

I'm from Jamaica but have lived in the US and Belgium and Thailand.

As my photos indicate, I really enjoy spending time with people. There's nothing better for me than good food and good people.

I especially love meeting people who are different from me; I get such a kick out of it. I love to explore new places and walk all over the place. I can be quiet at times, but most of the times I love chatting with people and keeping going on and on and on...

Nature is awesome.

I studied for a year in Antwerp, Belgium and in January 2013 moved to Bangkok for a job with an NGO.

I'm tall (6'5 or 195 cm) but don't play basketball. Went to a class recently to learn how to so I would stop disappointing all the people who would see me and say "Wow you must be really good at basketball, right?"

PHILOSOPHY

Quality, not quantity...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed various times and each time it was awesome! I did it in Berlin, Dresden, Crete and Prague. SUCH great hosts...:)

Interests

Reading, chatting randomly, exploring new places, walking all over the place, running, dancing, music, eating lots of food, gazing into the sky and wondering what life will be like for me in the next few years, singing

Music, Movies, and Books

Action or comedy in terms of Movies
Music - I'm pretty open
Books - honestly, I prefer if it's nothing too serious or meaningful - the nature of my work/studies exposes me to serious social/economic issues/tragedies globally so I don't really spend my free-time engaging in the same thing...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumping off a 40ft cliff into the sea.
