ABOUT ME

A simple person. In a very complicated way.

PHILOSOPHY

"There's no sugary cliche. Most folk don't know who we are, what we do or how we do it... let alone want to pay us for it. I never want to take this for granted, so I try to keep motivations simple, real, positive. If I only scrape out a living, at least it's a living worth scraping. If there's no future in it, this is a present worth remembering. For fires of happiness or waves of gratitude... for everything that brought us to that point in life, to that moment in time to do something worth remembering with a photograph or a scar. I feel genuinely lucky to hand on heart to say I love what I do. And I may never be a rich man but if I live long enough, I'll certainly have a tale or two for the nephews. And I dig the thought of that." Mickey Smith

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Trying to finish my college, find a job, pay a rent and have my own apartment with a bed for me and a spare bed for couchsurfers. I'm not succeeding, dough.

兴趣

Reading, watching movies, writing, art in general, taking walks, hiking, drawing, music, drinking coffee, tea, beer, conversation about meaning of the life (42!), writter's blocks and getting rid of writter's block, dark humor, passionate people who love what they do even if it means being the Big Lebowski and doing nothing.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Decided to travel as much as I can. It's not very original, but it's amazing for me.

Tried to learn old-irish. Boy, that was an amazing mistake.

教，学，和分享

I can go on and on about languages, art, books, movies, music, history, philosophy, science...
And I can teach you how not to cook, dance, drive, sing, and some other things I'm terrible at, but I still like doing them.
