CURRENT MISSION

To sculpt myself into the person I want to be.

De aportar al bienestar del mundo que me rodea.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in the beautiful city of Oxford, a 5 minute cycle from the centre (everyone cycles in Oxford), which is still my favourite place in the world, despite its opulence. I'm a child of two pyschoanalysts and seem to have survived the experience, though I'd say "weird" is the most common adjective I've heard people use to describe me - though it seems to be a compliment when they do. I'm pretty normal in most ways though - I'm confident when I'm comfortable, shy when I feel out of place, mostly ungrateful about my fortune and hungry for new experiences, happy when I eat food or I'm in good company and I like to be good company for others.

En 2016, mientras vivia en Buenos Aires, conoci a mi Dani, y con ella me he quedado en un apartamento en Santiago centro la mayoría de mi tiempo desde que llegué aca en enero tres años después.

PHILOSOPHY

To treasure the time we have, and resolve to use it well, counting each moment as precious - a chance to apprehend some truth, to experience some beauty, to conquer some evil, to relieve some suffering, to love and be loved, to achieve something of lasting worth.

Hay que aprovechar el tiempo que tenemos, contar cada momento como un tesoro - una oportunidad de comprender algo verdad, apreciar algo bella, conquistar algo malvado, aliviar algun sufrimiento, amar y ser amado, lograr algo que dura siempre.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I Rapped on stage at Hip-hop karaoke at Glastonbury

Teach, Learn, Share
