Of existential musings, terrible puns, and pathetically good intentions am I possessed in spades.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

"There are nearly thirteen million people in the world. None of those people is an extra. They're all the leads of their own stories. They have to be given their due."

-Charlie Kaufman, "Synecdoche, New York"

Sometimes, it breaks my heart to think of all the people I'll never know. The paths I'll never cross, and the stories I'll never get the chance to hear. I try to use every chance I get to make up for that. People are just such infinitely intriguing creatures.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Though witnessing Mt. Fuji was humbling beyond words, the most amazing thing I ever experienced was, hands-down, being in love. I think it's easily the bravest, most excruciating, and utterly beautiful thing any of us could ever possibly endeavour. To render ourselves so vulnerable to another with so very much at stake. Considering the intractably fleeting nature of this existence, I think it's all well worth the risk.
