CURRENT MISSION

I have a passion for seeing new things and meeting new people. What better way than this?

ABOUT ME

Thinker, lover and risk taker. I love the idea of the Aloha Spirit. If you don't know what that means look it up. I think couch surfing reminds me of what it's all about. To me it means looking after your brothers and sisters. When I log-on I am reminded about who I need to be.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live my life to learn and serve others. Hard-wired into our DNA is a gene that makes us feel good when we help someone else. Think about how this world would be if we all activated that gene.
