ABOUT ME

Wow, lets see if I can capture what I am about in a simple paragraph. Sorry can't do it. Sartre says that your identity is defined through your present commitments and future goals and I tend to agree on this point, although he is very a depressing individual and I on the other hand am quite optimistic. I currently work as a volunteer for no money as an English Teacher in a small village in Romania. I also work in an NGO where I try to develop youth projects to help my disadvantaged community as best I can. On free time I like to hitchhike around Romania and meet new people. I am chill, love to write, and have a passion for life. Found that life has more meaning when shared with others. Anyway check out my blog if you want a look into life as a Peace Corps volunteer in Romania. www.ortsreport.blogspot.com

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you would like to be treated.

The world does not impose the norms of science and morality on us; we impose those norms on the world

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Come and hang out when I am home. Our NGO houses EVS Volunteers, we currently have a couple from Germany, Georgia, and Turkey.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I have hitchhiked with my Girlfriend from Germany to Amsterdam, then back, then to France involving many couches and incredable hosts along the way. Sweden was nice and Hungery a great experience, again with Surfers and the experience just keeps getting better.

Intereses

All racket sports and anything that engages the mind. Anything really. I have daily compulsions to write a short story or poem and I have an almost unhealthy desire to know everything about European intellectual history from 1789. Whenever I get back to my village I try to meet up with a local accordion player who is teaching me some great songs on the squeeze box.

Música, películas y libros

Too many, I like the classics and that goes with music as well. But one of each I would say The Big Lebowski, The Beasty Boys, and Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy for a nice snapshot.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Brain washed in Tennessee, sold education books in Texas, then escaped and lived with a drug lord for a spell in Aspen, Colorado, where the beer flows like wine and the women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano
