About Me

My second name is Onyekachukwu. I am a trained teacher. I have taught English language in elementary schools for thirteen years, before I began my lecturing/researching career in 2013 till date. Travelling, reading, writing and talking about the goodness of God are my hobbies. I believe we are all one, from the same first parents, from one root; logically, everyone is either my brother or sister irrespective of colour. In fact, I am colour blind - meaning: I don't discriminate because of our differences in skin colors. I love 💕 my fellow humans as myself. Above all, I love God, my creator and heavenly Father. I believe in miracles. I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. Besides, I am:
• truthful and love people with same value.
• Vibrant personality with sound human relation.
• Easy to learn and adapt to circumstance.
• Demonstrates maturity and innovativeness.
• Ability to work with little or no supervision.

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy and make others happy. Happiness is free, get it. For me, I'm a happy person and I will do my best to make people around me happy and add values to their lives. Alone I can say but together we can talk. Alone I can enjoy but together we can celebrate. Alone I can smile but together we can laugh. There are so many other things I can't do alone but with you I can. That is the philosophy of friendship and togetherness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
