CURRENT MISSION

Train our hedgehog to not hate life as much. You live in a mansion buddy!

ABOUT ME

The question of 'where are you from?' is always quite the explanation for me. Not that I want to make things difficult, but I have been lucky to live in three amazing, different, patriotic countries through my life and all of them deserve the proper description. The more people I speak to, the more interesting my life becomes so I talk to everyone under the sun. Old, young, male, female. No difference to me. Friendliness in my book is being able to share any experience with any person.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry, be happy. As cliche as this is, I will always stick by my senior quote. I met a famous Chinese doctor called Dr. Ho from Baisha in the Yunnan province who told me that happiness is the best cure for any ailment. If he thinks that, and I think that...it must be right

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed in Hong Kong the first time in 2009 and never looked back. I host with my dear wife (http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/agaetano/) in Boulder, CO

2013 was a good hosting year. When we weren't getting married or traveling, we hosted a bit here and there. As of April 2014 we are setting out on our own adventure to couchsurf around the world!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've hosted a number of people who have been thinking about moving to Boulder, CO. The thing that always amazes me is that almost every one has chosen to live here afterward.
