CURRENT MISSION Discovering the mystery, soul, beauty and art in all things. ABOUT ME Curious PHILOSOPHY ¨And this is the simple truth - that to live is to feel oneself lost. He who accepts it has already begun to find himself, to be on firm ground. Instinctively, as do the shipwrecked, he will look around for something to which to cling, and that tragic, ruthless glance, absolutely sincere, because it is a question of his salvation, will cause him to bring order into the chaos of his life. These are the only genuine ideas; the ideas of the shipwrecked. All the rest is rhetoric, posturing, farce.¨ ---KIERKEGAARD

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING The world is not a cold place, but one full of love and beauty if WE make it that way, by living a life of servitude and generosity and trust. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE WOW! What a way to see a place, to become acquainted with a culture through the people who live and breathe the local air!
