About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To transcend the bullshit/Relax
ABOUT ME
I seek to experience, meet interesting people and make new friends. Music is a love of mine along with developing more self awareness. I want to keep learning from my mistakes and be a better human, encourage others to do the same.
PHILOSOPHY
I try to do what I feel, listen to what my heart wants. It's difficult at times! I believe there is something that we all belong to, a connection between every being. Everything is relative to one another and our actions are creating ripples out into the world. Therefore I try to cultivate compassion.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Tell people about it. I try to be a courteous guest and host when I can. It is a fantastic site and am grateful to be a part of it.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
When I went to Afghanistan in my reckless youth, my Afghani friend AJ, whom I met at a local book store, told me about this website. Afterwards I started using couch surfing in Turkey and then throughout Eastern Europe. I also had the pleasure of being able to host people during my stay in Italy. I have met so many great people and have cultivated deep friendships. This site truly provides and I have experienced a different depth to these countries because of CS. Thanks CS!!
