PHILOSOPHY
the greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance. its the illusion of knowledge - stephen hawking
my country is the world, and my religion is to do good - thomas paine
until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace - albert schweitzer
when injustice becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.
you can keep searching but you not going to find yourself. you have to create your own self.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
whenever possible hosting, surfing, meetings and everything else involved.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
many but never enough. please check references!
as a host i always did my best to make surfers feel at home even when there was times in london where i would say yes to everyone and loads of people show up but still managed to make everyone happy! im easy going and can get along with everyone as long as they are open minded and little sociable!
while surfing ive had all positive experiences and i always do my best to be helpful and to respect everyone's space.
