About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to find local work so I can travel more or work abroad so I see more of the world.

ABOUT ME

As mentioned above, I'm regarded as a mild mannered guy with a "quirky" sense of humour. I've caught the travel bug, having been maximizing my time in Europe, traveling to 17 european countries the last time I was in Europe (05-06 school year), with more travelling to come in the near future. Therefore, I just want to travel, meet new people and see new things and have some fun.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophies are simply "treat those as you want to be treated"; and "work hard, play hard". I consider myself a very fortunate person with all the opportunities I've been given in my life, therefore I just want to maximize my time, maximize my life and have some fun in the process.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had AMAZING success with Couch Surfing! My last trip, I CS'd in Lisbon, staying with a really nice host (Adrian) while meeting 4 other CSers (Vanessa, Kamil, Miguel and Irina); then in Rome, spent a couple fun nights with Stefano. In the Florence train station, I bumped into an old friend (Emma) who was CSing around and hook me up with her host; then finally in Bologna, I spent a night with Elisa, another CSer! Fantastic trip, thanks to all the CSers I was able to meet up with.
