About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experiences! My current mission is to relish in experiences freely and wholly. This I do by being thankful and generous with life. Smile at life and it will smile right back at ya!

ABOUT ME

Right now I am doing my undergraduate degree at the university of St Andrews in Scotland. I study Economics, and Sustainable Development. My aim is to engage with as many interesting people as possible and learn a bit from everyone's culture. I do not wish to be a mere tourist, I wish to be part of each culture I visit and see it in the eyes of the locals.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too pretty and valuable to waste it doing things that you do not do passionately. Live passionately and love passionately. The most important thing to me in life are the people who surround me and that I love. I do not find satisfaction in material belongings (even though I love cars, but that's fine cause I am passionate about them!).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By couching people and by being a coucher! I love meeting new people from other cultures! I thinks It's really good fun.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Most awesome thing in the world. Couch surfing is one of the most amazing social networking projects out there really joining the whole planet as a community. Travelling to St. Andrew's for the first time in my life was with CouchSurfing, I wouldn't be studying here if it weren't of the connections I made.

Music, Movies, and Books

Take a look at my music library and you can go from Chopin, to The Killers and from Katy Perry to Queen. In my opinion good music is of no particular genre it's just good music by its own right regardless of who made it. Best movie ever, Into the wild a must see for any couchsurfer. No preference for books so long as it's well writen and it finds me in the right mood for it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
