About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to see the world

ABOUT ME

Try to do one thing that scares you a day. Enjoy the little things and appreciate the big things. I have recently been made aware that there are no good or bad experiences. Often, things that seem negative often result in positives and vice versa. There are only things that happen and how you make the most out of the oppertunities they create. I am also a poor typst and worse speller.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything has a way working out

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Travel, surf, host, repeat.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Allways a good time, meeting new people and learning new things.

Interests

Surfing, hiking, and drawing. Id rather see one place really well than many places quickly. I find the details, specifically the imperfections to be the most interesting things. I find the outdoors to be more gratifiying than the indoors and prefer to spend my time away from dig cities.
