CURRENT MISSION

I am starting making travel documentaries and some spiritual videos and hoping that will help others to be more understanding and accepting. I hope that more people really travel, not just vacation, because this will bring culture and understanding to the world.

ABOUT ME

I have been traveling on a shoestring up until recently, hitchhiking, camping, CouchSurfing, sleeping anywhere people offer (almost), but I decided to upgrade my travel experience a bit and now I'm traveling on a bootstrap (despite having no boots and a bootstrap not being a metaphor for a little more money than "on a shoestring")
I will soon visit my 45th country and I'm quite happy I have not made the country count my goal, I've stayed in five of those counties for three months to over a year, another five for one month or more, and most for at least two weeks. I know most of the countries I've traveled pretty well, food and culture being among my top priorities.
I've had a wide range of experiences, and trying to become the person I need to be.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love the couch surfer meetings they are great for meeting people and essential for living new countries, I've hosted a couple people, and stayed once. All have been great experiences and I want to do more of both.

When Ghandi was asked what he thought about Western civilization, he said, "I think it would be a good idea."

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Collected and cooked for myself and three others for a whole week for absolutely no money, veggies, chicken, fruit, and even fresh bread -no stealing or begging involved.
Went swimming inside the Arctic Circle, spent three days at the Dead Sea in Palestine! Climbed Teide volcano, swam across the widest waterfall in Europe -Venta Rumbla, Latvia, Saw the Parthenon, Malbork Castle, Niagra Falls, Yellowstone Park, Elafonisi, and the USS Salem.

教，学，和分享

I'm working on starting a new language learning system... and incomplete, but hopefully helpful.
I firmly believe that language is somthing that needs to be unlocked more than learned. I was recently listening to a tour guide as I was taking photos and I was understanding what he was telling the people and I didn't think about what language he was speaking, I was assuming it was a latin based language mostly from his accent. But somthing he said was interesting, and I started listening more carefully and realized he was speaking Manderin Chineese! I nearly immediately stopped understanding what he was saying ou of surprise and the stress of, well, the fact tha I know like two words in Manderine, but I relaxed and realized that it is a lesson for next time.

No Stress > Understanding
Stress = Bariers
