About Me

In a sense no different than the "average joe" ive got a good job, friends, a family.
I've completed highschool, and have one year of college under my wing.
And now I'm "living the dream" as my peers might say.

I allowing myself a certain fluidity when it comes to belief and perspective, maintaining a virtue that allows me to be very adaptable.

Im a firm believer that we, as a human beings have the capability to create our own realities. To create a path toward whichever, whatever, wherever it is that we prefer. We live in a world that is on the brink of an ontological awakening. We are constantly in contact, and finding other human beings who have such a passion for BEING, & GROWING. sharing in the growth of perspective. Allowing each other expansion of mind. Its a beautiful thing.

Truthfully..I believe in people. Human beings.
And you are all, the reason i am here. =]

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

The fall of 2016, I backpacked through Europe, making my way through Portugal, Spain, Italy, Croatia, Bosnia, Hungary, Czech Republic and Germany! Met countless amounts of people, locals..couchsurfers, world travellers! Participated in two meetings in Naples as well! Had the time of my life.

My goals now are this:
Further my career in Engineering,
While hosting surfers travelling through the area. As well as plan for my next trip through South America!

Interests

Philosophy - i tend to find the simplicity within the complicated, see the world through an array of perspective that i allow myself, by remaining fluid like in my belief systems. Knowing & Finding comfort, in the fact that i know nothing at all.

(mechanical)engineering - although only self taught, ive been a quick study in any field ive found myself in. Ive always had an engineers mindset.

theoretical physics

quantum physics

astronomy

metaphysics

botany - ive got quite the green thumb!

reading and writing

language - just another form of separation!born in the US having English as a first language. Father born and raised in PuertoRico, and grandmother from Italy..Spanish has become a second.
Would love to/look forward to learning as many languages that i can in my lifetime.
Earasing those boundaries.

anything in the realm of, or colliding with what is known science and spiritual growth. Or anything along either of those lines.
