CURRENT MISSION

to get my focus straight and orchestrate fate

ABOUT ME

Once upon a time I thought I would be a professor of Anthropology but with the combination of amazing people in my life and healthy doses of wander/techno/social lust mixed with coffee and other social beverages I've found myself where I am today.

PHILOSOPHY

"to expect life to be tailored to your expectations is to invite frustration" --fortune cookie I cracked open when about 17.. and my life has far exceeded my expectations and it seems to be getting better.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While I've never couchsurfed via this method I have always enjoyed my experiences of spending time with and enjoying the hospitality of many people even those I've only just met. While house sitting, I was given the chance to host for many strangers to me as the owner of the house would send them in on their way across the country. What I enjoyed about hosting was it allowed me to really again see my home area through their eyes as I showed them around.

Interests

The reason formal schooling never worked for me was I couldn't narrow down my interests.. I was really trying for Anthropology and Physics because I figured between the 2 pretty much everything was covered in one way or another. So my interests are vast. Lately though they have been social media and social beverages.
