CURRENT MISSION
Reach out, experience, learn, understand, and fall in love with anything outside of this overrated peninsula called Florida.
ABOUT ME
Disclaimer: Life is always changing over time, this little biography of mine will likely change over time as well.
I think I grew up in the wrong area of this country, maybe this world. Misunderstood most of my life, I've decided to try to connect with people from all walks of life in order to figure myself out. What I do know is that Nature and the universe we are in tends to prefer equilibrium. If evil and suffering exist, and we all know these things appear in our lives from time to time, then there is beauty in everything just the same. Life is much too short to neglect this concept. So I make it my responsibility to search for beauty in everything I encounter, and show it respect and the graciousness I hold within.
Often times that leads people to assume they can take advantage of my generosity and kindness, but I feel it deep inside that I can never change who I am. CS will hopefully help me with this pursuit.
With that being said, I love to travel, especially to locations with beautiful beaches and amazing waves. I can, however, appreciate historical locations, densely lush environments, or a bursting metropolis. I love the cold weather too, so just about anywhere that's not a suburb is where I want to be.
I'm a surfer at heart, but I'm not a bum.
My passions are art and mathematical sciences. I'm always trying to draw the line between the two. I just love how everything around us is connect and interacting with one another. The similarities in their behavior, no matter how microscopic or astronomical, really show me how elegant and diverse this universe is with such simplicity.
On a lighter note, I can be severely sarcastic, playful and witty. I try to express any frustration through sarcasm and dark humor, so beware. Also, I love to try new stuff. An adventure always sounds great. That probably can explain all the broken bones and injuries I've accumulated over the years. Although I don't like the club scene, I do like to dance. I just don't see the point of spending 25 dollars (US) to go inside of a dark building with colorful lights, when you can do all the same stuff (yes even the lights) at home, or better yet on the beach where it's open and much more refreshing. Since I'm not usually out partying, I am watching movies or enjoying conversations with people. I love to have a good talk with just about anybody, as long as the topic has some body and depth to it.
§§ Feel free to ask me anything else if you have questions §§.
PHILOSOPHY
Everyone is born with a certain potential. Live up to that potential and never try any less.
The whole universe and everything held within it is physically connected in one way or another. Its amazing to know I have been touched by the most distant stellar objects known to exist. And when you get down to the most fundamental particles that make up matter, we are all indistinguishable.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Totally willing to show people around south florida. Since I live with family, I can't say I can host people for sure, but I definitely can go out for coffee or drink, and show you the area. I'm an avid traveler, when I can afford it and time allows it, so I hope to meet the diversity of culture this organization has to offer. In return, I will be as generous and didactic as my host pleases, and I can accommodate.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My family and I got lost inside of the Amazon rainforest and happened to run into a guerrilla member who happened to be off work that day. Nice guy! He guided us through swamp and jungle for about 5 hours until we found a road. Later on he came back and gave us gifts like un-processed cacaine and tools to make it as souvenirs.
Teach, Learn, Share
Well I know a bit about drawing, painting, jewelry, exercising and Physics and Math: mainly radiation, Raman Spectroscopy, fractional dimensions, Quantum Terbulance, super-fluids, and analogue black holes. I want to learn how to dance better and cook.
