CURRENT MISSION

climb, surf, hike, swim, be a tourist in my own country

ABOUT ME

tall
hollow bones - ravenous appetite
fast metabolism
flexitarian - very fussy about the meat i eat, must basically be hormone free Namibian type stuff. no "free range" !

lately i've developed an obsession with climbing difficult rock faces ...

broke my right arm on a snowboarding stunt but it's healing nicely :-)

PHILOSOPHY

my life has been a bit crazy... it has been one long holiday for 25 years, now i am working to make money but don't ask why, i guess i'm saving up for something big
i have seen the light i am studying full time again in 2011.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

played records to a crowd of stomping crazy dancers :)

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

lately i've been learning the most amazing things from the living book of nature. generally i follow the descartesian method of using my rational mind to understand nature but occasionally i have experiences such as shared dreams, precognition and hallucination which i find difficult to explain using my training as a scientist
