About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To create an eco-village type sustainable lifestyle

ABOUT ME

I'm a creative person, and growth orientated. My alter ego 'the guru' manifests after a spliff who aides me in my journey of life. I can be quite serious, although my wackiness may present itself at certain times. I like pushing boundaries, and being comfortable out of my comfort zone. Travelling is like air to me. I like writing as well, so those two go well together. I'm very comfortable being alone although it's nice to seek human contact every now and then too. Stick around long enough, and you might get a glimpse of who I am.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to leave this planet in a better state than if I had not existed at all. I strive to make the more ecological choice although I do sometimes get tempted by the dark side. I work on creating better habits in order for the ecological choice to be taken by my default personality. What the ecological choice really is proves to be another point to be debated. I therefore act within the boundaries of my knowledge, applying principles of evolutionary biology, Buddhism, and permaculture to help guide me on my journey.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate in couch-surfing by hosting, but have yet to successfully travel with it as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Close to none, although attempted a few times during my time in Australia.

Interests

I like a lot of adventure sports, and things that keep my mind and body active. I love to travel to different places whether physically or mentally.

I'm interested in martial arts, yoga, meditation, gardening, permaculture, languages, fire dancing, miscellaneous forms of dancing, sailing, scuba diving, boardsports, rock climbing, handstands, books, music making, music listening, movies, series, travelling, and many other art forms that I have not mentioned or am yet to discover.
