About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel to as many places I can before getting bogged down by the job and to meet as many people as I can in the process.

ABOUT ME

I'm a guy who likes to spend time at the beach, who loves getting to know people, although will be a bit quiet to begin with. Once I get to know people a bit more, I have a tendency to open up a lot more and joke with them really sarcastically as all my good friends will tell you. I have a love for cooking and learning new languages and enjoy spending an evening with friends watching a movie or doing absolutely nothing at all. I plan on becoming an interpreter someday and I am currently working myself towards that goal.

I love to debate.

Life is too serious. Laugh your way through life and you'll be a better person for it.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's too short to sit in one place and be comfortable, the more people I meet, the richer my life becomes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Plan on traveling and meeting lots of people. Eventually, I would like to open up my place to others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed at Helmi's place in München, Germany and it was a great experience! I have also stayed at different houses through my church. All my experiences have been one of a kind, thoroughly enjoyable, and I believe that it will continue to be so.

Interests

I play mallet percussion (ie: Marimba, Vibraphone, xylophone, timpani...etc) and love going to different concerts. I love reading a good story whenever I can to let myself relax. I enjoy spending time with friends doing anything from starting prank wars between each other, to cooking, to watching movies, to going to the beach. People and their cultures, views, and languages interests me. I enjoy talking to people who have their own views in life and sharing mine with them.

Music, Movies, and Books

There's a billion of them. I enjoy most types of music and enjoy films that have a good plot, actors/actresses, and/or a mind twist to them. Books are simply, amazing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My life is one amazing story after another due to the people that I have come to know and cherish.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always keep an open mind; to limit yourself is to limit your own experience and you could miss out on something grand.
