Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Following my bliss... Travel India... study yoga and sustainability
ABOUT ME
Once graduating from college with a mechanical engineering degree, it's been a wild ride back and forth across the country several times between Michigan and California, taking different routes each time.
I have developed a passion for sustainability, alternative building, and renewable energy.
Yoga has opened many doors for me and I am planning to do a teachers training program in India come spring.
PHILOSOPHY
Follow your passion and intuition. Live by simple joys and you may find yourself very wealthy. evolve yourself through new experiences. indulge in the sights, smells, sounds, tastes, feelings and energies. share, help whenever you can, be a part of the common good.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've couchsurfed here and there but mostly in New Zealand and had an awesome overall experience with the site. I've met some really great people, and hope to host when I find myself in a position that allows it.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Have been traveling for a couple years sleeping on couches both randomly and arranged by this site.
Nothing but great experiences when using cs.
