About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To leev looong and prosper! :) And to do anything and everything that the world has to offer (with reason of course) ... just to be out there and care free and meet as many cool people as I can

ABOUT ME

I am a pretty laid back guy. I love to just laze around on weekends and do absolutely nothing. And then on other weekends you'll find me rock climbing, hiking and MTBing through the local parks. I am not a serious guy at all (unless it really calls for it), I take things as they come and like to 'tell it like it is' which probably gets me into more trouble than I deserve :P
I grew up in South Africa and spent my best days up to now over there. I moved here to the US to kick off a new adventure, on one hand due to my career which I wanted to step up, and on another hand to meet a whole set of new, crazy and fun people - which I think Cali is full off :)
I am open to meeting absolutely any and every body I can - not because I think I will click with everybody, but because everybody has their own stories and experiences and learning from them and trying a few out is really exciting ... imho!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well how I would LIKE to participate is by getting more people involved in CS - I noticed not a single friend of mine from SA (save one) even knew about CS - shocking! :) - if only they realized the potential of this community how great it would be ... But for now, I am gonna get more involved here in the US

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach - was never a good teacher.
Learn - try too little, procrastinate too much.
Share - as much as I can.

So I guess I will have to share :P
