ABOUT ME

I think I have a smiling face. Friends say I have a funny face. I take it as a compliment.
I'm open-minded. Sociable sometimes. Likable most of the time.

PHILOSOPHY

"We're one, but we're not the same. Got to carry each other."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted and couch surfed quite a bit but it was outside Couchsurfing.org. It was mostly through friends of friends connections.
I joined Couchsurfing in 2008 but haven't been around the past few years because I've been out of the country.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

great! i've hosted and met with some of the coolest people.

Interests

I'm interested in all kinds of martial arts. I do Taekwondo, have been in sparring tournaments, and would like to work on Aikido and Taichi.
