ABOUT ME
The Protagonist - ENFJ
To girls I am known as "Mr Nice Guy" (but honestly I am not that nice and I'm pretty sick of it), to guys I am known as a "bro"! I am quirky, geeky, good listener, outspoken, idealist, opportunist, on rare and bad days I am a "whiner" LOL. I belong to the creative types. I love to meet people and experience different cultures and see the world or save the world! I love food as much as travelling. I would choose a good conversation over a movie. I think I am a crazy enough, a borderline intensive thinker/dreamer. I'm into psychedelics, you know what I mean :)

PHILOSOPHY

- A cynic is a disappointed idealist.
- Learn, un-learn, re-learn.
- I can accept failure but I can't accept not trying.
- One must learn to fall before learning to walk or run.
- Common sense is not common.
- If you can't believe in yourself, you can't believe in anything.
- What goes around comes around...Karma.
- Sometimes, it is about the journey and not the destination.
- What is light without darkness? Hate without love?
- Murphy's law.
- Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. (Albert Einstein)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I've been hosting (I take my cs'ers everywhere I go, sometimes I get too excited) and I think I am pretty good at it! Please bless me with some good karma in return when I travel as a couchsurfer:]

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Sleeping everywhere and anywhere when you can...I did my time in the army for 2 years, sleeping in a bunk with 27 men is pretty crazy, a 3 minute shower is a gift, a cold can of coke in the forest is a gift, sleeping 8hrs is a gift, a compliment from your fellow army mate is a gift, smiling at the end of the day is a gift:] Life is a gift...
