CURRENT MISSION

Actually, I think it changes a lot. But, I want to communicate with others. Over the past 5 years I have been persueing a career as a filmmaker. I feel (as many do) like I have a lot to share. There are issues that I feel are important, stories to tell.

ABOUT ME

I'll add to this, but I want to say that, growing up all over the world, the cultures, places, languages and peoples I came in contact with are what have informed me. I consider myself a citizen of the world, or a 3rd culture kid. 3rd culture in the sense that I was influenced by my parents culture and the many found myself surrounded by as a child, from which I formed my own 3rd culture.

PHILOSOPHY

If you believe it, it's yours!

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Okay, I grew up participating in my parents volunteer projects my whole life, although I'd have to say that at the moment I'm participating in getting myself on track.
