About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experience the world in it's true form

ABOUT ME

Where to begin...I am 28 (OMG! that old /sad face) and recently have finally decided to leave the comforts of my home (again) and go see and explore this planet that we live on and yet so little of us has actually done so! I finally feel as though it is time for me to get outside my comfort zone and go help others around the world. Whether it be just helping in general, teaching English, or offering any of my skills to use to those who could use them. I love photography and especially nature, which is why I enjoy traveling.
There is so much I feel I could write here, but the character limit will cut me off soon I feel haha. So if there is anything that you wish to talk to me or ask, don't even hesitate as I enjoy talking about a wide away of subjects! If you are into crypto, please lets talk!

PHILOSOPHY

I feel this is a trick question as I have some... 'different' views on lots of things. But over the last few years I have learned a few good lessons. So here it goes:
The Golden Rule; give the best version of yourself to others and the way they respond back is what you get. Life is a mirror and you attract what you put out there. You attract the energy at the end of the day to make or break your reality. So I will try and skim the top.
Enjoy the ride. This is all a human conscious expereince that we all get to interact together and make reality! Be rational, be humble, kind and try and leave this planet in a little better shape than you found it. Try and connect with this planet as without it we are nothing and we need to understand this.
Don't be rigid; be anti-fragile. Learn that the world changes and evolves and as such, so must we if you want to survive and thrive in the currently ever-evolving reality. Nothing in nature is constant, except for change, no?

I have done some things in the past that I am not too happy about and because of them I have learned and feel like I have become a better person. Through that I want to now give back and help others around the world. We sometimes forget how good we really have it (esp in the 1st world countries).
Be grateful at the end of the day for what you have and what you have gone to make you who you are in this life. (We can ramble about this for hours and I do love exploring these areas with an open mind!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As of now, I guess trying to extend and offer any of my services to anyone who is willing to let me couchsurf! I wish I could give back by offering the same, but I am currently traveling, but will be looking for a place in the near future to reverse the experience :D

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Wow, I seriously don't even know where to begin. I am truly blessed and fortunate to have met the people I have as I have had the time of my life with each and every person I have stayed with. Everything from trying crazy foods to eating breakfast in a bathroom haha. Amazing!

Interests

I have too many interests, but I will briefly name just some...
Photography: nature in general and anything interesting
Music: particularly electronica, classic and rock, but am quite open minded
Drawing: it was a natural talent that I have been gifted since youth and love to draw anything
Computers: yes, I am a geek and love to mess around with computers and any electronics as well
Athletics: love to run, hike, swim, and any physical activities
Reading: come on, I know it's old school, but you just can't beat the power of knowledge
Philosophy: What is going on in the world and have those deep meaningful conversations that we forget to have sometimes about all aspects of life and the experience

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one? Traveling around the world count? Prob not since wrong crowd haha. I was able to implement a bitcoin integration with Coinbase for the last company I worked for, which was pretty cool! (In case you did not notice, I am a fan about crypto currency and if you have questions about it and how it works, more than happy to help or answer any questions.)
Scaling Mt. Rainer in WA will probably be up there for amazing.
(more to come??)

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, so far I got a few principles that I have learnt from life (hoping I can add more once I officially begin traveling) is the simple rule of life. We are all brothers and sisters on this planet and we should never forget this. Race, ethnicity, religion, politics, (and whatever I have omitted) are all useless factors that separate us and force use to put up borders and dived ourselves. We come to this planet the same way and we leave the same way, so why should those things be used to do harm and separate us when they should not matter in the greater picture...
Sorry got on a roll. I will add more if you like in person over tea/drink (sorry coffee drinkers) or food.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am good and handy with tech so if you have any tech questions or needs, I am more than happy to help
I can share my knowledge and experiences
My photography (most got lost in the past due to lack of due diligence of having an ACTIVE backup versus reactive backup :( ; oh well)
I love hiking and moving around, so show me the cool places in nature
I enjoy cooking and although it's no French cuisine
