About Me

ABOUT ME

I am open to any type of adventure and have minimal expectations. I play in puddles when it rains and try not to let opportunities pass me by. I consider myself a laid back individual who tries to lead a well balanced lifestyle. I have been living in Philadelphia for 2 years now pursuing an MBA degree. Before then I lived in Mexico City working for an international vegetable seed company.

PHILOSOPHY

Without quoting Thich Nhat Hanh, I'd say my philosophy is to recognize that every moment is important and unique even in uncomfortable or trying times. I attempt to learn something new every day and step out of my comfort zone when possible to promote growth. Life is short and beautiful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am headed to Montreal for the Formula 1 races in June! I can't wait to get to know a new city. I have never been to Canada

Couchsurfing in Santiago, Chile was an awesome experience.

Interests

I enjoy putting myself in other people's shoes, or socks, in different situations- perspective taking for me is healthy exercise.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in Sanya, China I had the opportunity to see the buddhist statue of Guan Yin which is a 108 meter tall statue depicting three different states of the goddess. It is said that in 2005 when the statue was completed, the horrible hurricanes that plagued the coast of the south sea of this region in China ceased completely.
