Overview
About Me
People tend to say I'm smart, funny, and kind. I've been told that I have friendly eyes, positive energy, or that I can be trusted with their girlfriend (whatever that means).
I'm super chill and flexible, except when it comes to techno on the dancefloor: it has to be hard, industrial, and/or acid. Electro and EBM flavors are more than welcome though.
I'm in love with learning and laughing, so I apologize if I annoy you with my constant jokes and "why?" questions.
My path of self-discovery lead me to one of self-creation after realizing that the concept of self, or ego, is neither fixed nor predetermined, and hence it's through our decisions and actions that we build ourselves, this impermanent, malleable essence we call "I".
Realizing that life and the universe have no purpose has given me total freedom and responsibility of my life, because then the purpose has to be chosen and created by myself. For me, the purpose of life is living it. Experiencing things and enjoying. Especially through love, food, and techno.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm always looking forward to meet people from diverse places, cultures, and backgrounds. I like it when I can see the world through other people's eyes.
Interests
I have it real easy to find interest in almost anything. Pretty much any person can be interesting if they talk about their passion.

Teach, Learn, Share
Life is too short not to learn, understand, travel, meet new people, eat delicious food, love, laugh, live. And it's all better when shared.
