CURRENT MISSION

To discover the real hearts and souls of the place I travel. To continue to meet amazing people, continue learning each day; and to step out of my comfort zone.

ABOUT ME

I am currently on my 'big trip' where Ive taken a year to travel around the world. I started off in The Philippines, went on to Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam.
And here I am.
I am an open-minded, warm person. I love people, animals, sports, the outdoors, reading, exploring.

PHILOSOPHY

The poem Desiderata pretty much sums up my personal philosophy.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've just started couchsurfing, and am addicited! It is such a fantastic way to meet people you would normally never have the chance to meet, all the while being able to experience the place you're visiting like a local. Genius!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I have surfed 4 couches and had 4 excellent hosts, and am looking forward to more surfing!
