About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to live a fulfilling life

ABOUT ME

I've been traveling and living in Asia for the past 3 years but i'm ready to sink my teeth into world a bit more. That is currently manifesting as me traveling the world by bicycle

I'm a Saggitarius, take from that what you will :)

My ukulele is often on my back or in my hands ~ though I am willing to share for those who want to play or learn.

Lazy yogi, passionate for life.

^.^

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live
Explore everything
SMILE often
In everyday there is something beautiful.
Every one you meet in life is a teacher.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couch surfed a few times and have had absolutely wonderful experiences. A few years ago, I was living in Sevilla, Spain taking classes at the Univserity and living in a flat with all university students. Because of the convenience of traveling around Europe I was fortunate enough to stay with some really amazing humans. I'd love to repay that type of experience wherever I am in the world. Now, i'm looking for hosts as I ride my bicycle around the world!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed for the first time in Burlington Vermont and since then in Ronda, Spain as well as Ghent, Belgium and District 11 of Saigon, Vietnam.

Interests

I love a good conversation, yoga, scuba diving rock climbing and making music with some friends, photography, exploring cities and motorbiking through countrysides near and far.
