CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

PHILOSOPHY

explore/challenge/learn/do something new

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

house is open to anyone when i’m not on the road. I have one better than a couch, I have a mattress. I live on the Seoul subway line 1 about an hour and a half from the city though so the commute isn’t ideal!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I’ve only heard good things from friends... waiting to make memories of my own.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I do enjoy a good documentary now and again: ‘babies’ was good , ‘Born into Brothels' was excellent about a non-profit which teaches photography skills to children in the indian slums. As for movies i’m a sucker for Woody Allen’s newer stuff, although my favorite movie would be “Paris Jtaime” about my favorite city.

Music: I like Hip-Hop & Jazz, as well as electronic music, some RnB & Pop, Soul and maybe some classic/80’s to top it off. odd the top pf my head some of my favorite artists would include; Bill Evans, The Roots, Diana Krall, Jamiroquai, Busta Rhymes, Calvin Harris & James Blake.

Books: currently reading 'A light at the end of the world’ by Wade Davis about disappearing cultures in a modern world (although that is bound to change by the time you read this). I have enjoyed books by; Sam Harris, Carl Sagan, Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins, Paulo Coelho, Ken Follett & Richard Branson.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving & Sharkdiving would proabably be at the top of the list but I’ve been very blessed to see some of the most beautiful places in the world, Halong Bay, the pyramids at Giza I Also did the Camino de Santiago where I walked the width of spain over the course of a month. I the future I would like toclimb kilimanjaro, visit an Active Volcano and finally as space tourism gets cheaper go on a sub-orbital flight!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to...

say hello, goodbye & thank you in a few language / maybe write your name in Korean / The major scale / I can teach you how to play backgammon.

I love to have conversations about religion/philosophy & the Universe
