CURRENT MISSION

To become the best version of myself

ABOUT ME

I am a dreamer and a believer that we can do all things that we set our minds to. I love sharing my life with others and traveling to various spots throughout the world, gathering new experiences and developing friendships as I wander about. Physically I am average height, about 6'0", blonde-haired, frequently bearded, with an unmistakable hint of Irishness to my smiling eyes and in my lively behavior!

PHILOSOPHY

Here I am Lord, I trust in You!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a natural networker, although I do not like the term as currently used in the professional world. I believe these things should happen naturally and not have to be premeditated or preconceived, but rather via the friendships that we establish with those around us we can help make the world a smaller and more enjoyable place to live. I understand the idea that money makes the world go 'round, as propagated in the US, but I also see the possibilities of something like this project to enable people from all financial backgrounds and walks of life to participate. I hope to take advantage of my youth to travel now, and then to pass along my experiences and the benefit of my couch some day in the future when my heart settles inside me and I am ready to make my own home.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experiences have been many and varied, but as a surfer I am very much prepared to and enjoy cooking a meal, cleaning a bathroom, doing whatever needs to be done in exchange for the wonderful hospitality that I have unfailingly found with all of my CS hosts!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Sat on the side of a mountain overlooking Arequipa, Peru and watched its shadow dissipate over the city as the sun rose behind us and warmed all it overtook.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I speak and teach Spanish and would love to learn and exchange other languages. In addition I have a strong background knowledge of the Roman Catholic faith and would love to trade and clarify ideas of faith and about truth.
