CURRENT MISSION

to explore and learn with people from all over the globe

ABOUT ME

I want to live it all before we all get inevitably sucked into settling down, having kids, and mowing the grass. Live life!! Look for new experiences everyday! The best things come unexpectedly...so why have a plan for life.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm still trying to figure this one out...get back to me in a few decades.

"I desire to speak somewhere without bounds; like a man in a waking moment, to men in their waking moments; for I am convinced that I cannot exaggerate enough even to lay the foundation of a true expression."
~Walden

"No puedo entender
este mundo como es,
que uno puede odiar,
herir y traicionar, ¿Por qué?
Dame fe, dame alas,
dame fuerza
para sobrevivir,
en este mundo."
~Maná

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd be happy to help people coming to DC, New Haven and Panama, and I think this site is a great way to see more than just the hotels and tourist attractions of a country. I always love hearing about the work that people are doing around the world, and what it is like to actually live in the places I travel to.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

found a sand dollar in the Sahara desert

Lehren, lernen, teilen

In contrast to many people who use this site, I'm pretty bad at cooking, so if someone could teach me it would be awesome. I can buy the ingredients, learn, and do the dishes!?

Share... college teaches you very little about real life... but I love discussing life, the universe, and everything. I'm trying to learn how to play the darbouka, an Egyptian drum - drum lessons anyone? Basic arabic phrases?
