About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world, and thus, myself.

ABOUT ME

I'm an active and fun-loving guy, always ready to try new things!

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe Diem.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Carpe Diem - always say 'Yes!'

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed with an incredibly hospitable man in Sevilla, Spain. Not knowing a word of Spanish, he was extremely kind and helpful, providing great food and a comfortable sofa to sleep on.

Interests

I run Track and Cross Country for my university, and race triathlons on my own. I love the outdoors, and all sorts of hiking/biking/exploring/climbing. Also, I'm a sucker for the sun.

Music, Movies, and Books

Ender's Game; Yes Man; Once A Runner are some great books. I love weird, alternative music (Architecture in Helsinki, Flaming Lips, Sufjan Stevens), and adore all Hayao Miyazaki films (Howl's Moving Castle and Princess Mononoke are his two best).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Finished Half Ironman last summer - a very humbling experience. Ready for the full one, though!
