CURRENT MISSION

To understand the culture of the world

ABOUT ME

Independent and introspective. Always trying to learn. I can be fun and charming, but I tend to fall away and dive into myself. I enjoy understanding people on a deeper level and sometimes get frustrated to have to go through the pleasantries with someone to get there. I'm quite open when people ask about me. I enjoy hearing about and giving feedback on the complexities in people's lives. Because I'm overly independent, I working on making myself more social.

PHILOSOPHY

Know Thyself - Socrates
To thine ownself be true - Shakespeare
Everything in moderation, including moderation
C'est la vie (such is life)

I am and always will be on the road to self improvement. I try to help those around me. I listen. I try to treat others as they would like to be treated but always ensure that my needs are met first. After all, if I'm having my own troubles that I can't deal with, how can I help others?

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Things I've learned on this trip so far:

1. Never try to couchsurf on the first day in a new country (or city). Stabilize yourself first.

2. Learn to cook. Preparing food is a supremely social activity. (I don't cook much yet).

3. Wear sunscreen.

4. Make sure to do some other stuff and not get caught up in just 'hanging out' and drinking at the hostels
