About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Dear Destiny, I am ready now

ABOUT ME

I love meeting new, crazy, quirky and insane new people. I love having my horizons broadened, my mind opened and have an insatiable appetite for trying out new things and new experiences. I love travel; I believe it’s a necessity, not a luxury. I love new ideas; hearing other people’s and coming up with my own. I need to really work on putting these into action. I love listening to people’s stories, I love to understand how people interact and connect, and understand the pleasure, and also the pain this brings. I like people who have talent and do shit. I love creativity; and helping creative people fly. Fascinated by the world; the planet; the beauty; all there is to see, do, learn and all the wonder and opportunities.

PHILOSOPHY

I've borrowed this from a fellow couchsurfer but I love it "life is too short to drink reconstituted juice"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Trying to absorb myself in SF culture, life and art.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed a few times and met some great friends as a result. I participate in local group activities. I also plan on attending some local meet ups. When I settle somewhere, I would also love to host.

Interests

I'm trying to incorporate yoga and mediation more into my life schedule. When I do I'm a lot happier. I'm learning about buddhism and spirituality and seeing how and what that means to me at the moment. I like to get outdoors; hiking, camping, trekking; I like taking photos. I would like to try out some new things like rock climbing, kitesurfing and sky diving. I'm learning about documentaries and videography as well as iPhone app development. I have a passion for art and design. I need to get a guitar and learn some chords.
