CURRENT MISSION

The Holy Grail

ABOUT ME

Jack of all trades, master of none :) Product of diverse and ongoing education. Grew up trying everything, lost some focus, and have been regaining it since. Would have liked to study abroad more than once, but Lund was unreal. Chained myself to an American corporation doing what I know and following rules. Working on finding a balance that allows for more freedom. Traveling as much as possible. Linked up with a German firm and wound up in Germany for training. Will be mainly stateside for trips come 2011, but taking any opportunity to move around. Training for another marathon, beach volleyball, soccer, lifting to keep myself busy. Learning to compose tracks, a work in progress. Monotony is forbidden!

PHILOSOPHY

Life in the fast lane, because it's short. Sleep is for the birds. Finding humor in every situation. Never becoming too comfortable. Risk taking. Learning from everything. Insanity on occasion. Touch the stove when it's hot. There's a time and a place for everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting in Berlin (conditionally) and Essen once I return from OZ and Singapore in the second half of January 2011

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far met several CSers IRL. Never through CS. Looking to change that :P

Interests

Trying new things and meeting new people. Making mistakes. Gaining Perspective. Staying away from a desk. Sport, art, food, music, dance. Building bridges. The internets. Revisiting former hobbies and making new ones. The world. Making my own rules.
