CURRENT MISSION

To make as many friends as possible

ABOUT ME

I am a very good, kind hearted person. I love to entertain people. I am sarcastic as times but in a funny way. I know how to enjoy the moment. I am also a geek at heart. I love electronic gagdets and technology.

PHILOSOPHY

Always take the time to understand a person's situation before reacting. This will avoid any conflicts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted people. The last couple I hosted was from Lyon, France. They were awesome people. I wish I had more time at home but lately I have been traveling a lot for work.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experience with Couch Surfing has been a positive one. Getting to know the people who I host and see if they have similiar views or values is great. For any newbies out there, I would suggest going to an event first before hosting people so you get to talk to the people who host and who Couch Surf. Also for all the females who Couch Surf, I would suggest going with a friend to a host place just for safety purposes. It is a great experience meeting new and different people. As a host, I would suggest talking to your Couch Surfer about the ground rules of your home so that there is no conflict. If negative things do happen with your Couch Surfers always try to understand the situation before reacting. It will turn into a humorous situation if you can relate to other people. Also if you are hosting, try to get involved with your Couch Surfers by showing them around your area, talking about things you like and dislike, sharing experiences because that is the only way you really get to know people. The whole Couch Surfing experience is basically a social experiment. The more we interact with people, the better understanding we have of the world and not just of our local area.

Music, Movies, and Books

One of my favorite movies is "The Mambo Kings". I do like war time movies and Ancient Greek, Roman type movies. In terms of music, I listen to a variety of stuff from Andrea Bocelli to Flo-Rida. I figure as long as the music touches you in a certain way it is good music. My favorite book is a toss up between "Old Man and The Sea" by Ernest Hemingway or "The Alchemist" by Pablo Coelho.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The moments that have left me awestruck was 1. When I first travelled outside of North America (I went to London, England) 2. Seeing the exhibits at the British Museum 3. Seeing people salsa dance with such grace at the salsa clubs when I was first learning how to dance salsa

Teach, Learn, Share

The people I enjoy meeting and learning from are the people who are open minded, know things that I do know about, and are very opinionated.
