About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Nova Scotia is like an oster, Gotta go and Explore this BIG SEA.

ABOUT ME

If you ask my friends and people that know me, they would probably say I am a outspoken and driven individual. I am kind, caring and hardworking. My friends and family are very important to me. I love to travel the world, see new things, do new things and am never afraid of a challenge. Live each days as if it were your last.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is about being who you are, trying to make yourself better in you everyday life, help others, enjoy adventures, cherish positive memories and learn from negative ones. Don`t ever let yourself stop living, you are what makes life, no one but you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I decided on joining couchsurfing as I was planning to travel the world and I love to meet new people. Anyone who is willing to accept you into there home in my opinion is going to be probably pretty cool. There is so much you can learn from the locals of any society, what are the best things to see, best places to go etc. Living life by exploring the world is why couchsurfing is great. I also want to give back to the people that hosted me by allowing couchsurfers to stay with me once I am stable in one place myself.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love so much music its a long list of artists and genres. I like people to show me what type of music they like so that I can look into that genre. When its comes to books I like books like Pillars of the Earth, all the Lord of the Rings books, Game of Thrones to name a few. Movies I like alot to but my favorite genre of movies is historical action like Braveheart, Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first thing that left me awestruck was when I was doing volunteer work in Managua Nicaragua and i saw a bunch of children who lived in shacks but were the happiest children i have ever seen. It was incredible to me to see someone with what we in 1st world countries would think as having nothing, might in fact have everything, utter happiness.

The second thing that left me awestruck would be doing tidal bore rafting in Nova Scotia, Canada on the entrance to the beautiful Bay of Fundy where there is highest tides in the world. I went when there was fairly high tides, I was at the very front of the boat without inhibiting in other peoples experiences yelling give me more as the boat went under wave after wave.

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is an adventure in which learning, loving, loosing and friendship are apart of. The people you most hate or hurt you the most usually can teach you the most, if you just look at the positive of what they are doing to bother you even if it is a negative thing they do, you can learn from it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

There is so many interests that I have and my girlfriend has as well. We love to eat good food, normally in our house but sometimes out in Aachen. I can share a wide range of discussions and information regarding pretty much any subject. I am able to tell you the best things to do in Aachen. I am really a pretty flexible guy, who enjoys helping people as much as I can. If there is any questions dont hesitate to ask.
