CURRENT MISSION

to do what I can, with what I have, in the time I am given... And put off getting a career for a while...

ABOUT ME

I'm all about getting as many experiences in while the world will still have me. I'm a huge believer in the benefits of good manners, appreciation, travel, music, tea and socks. I want to learn as much as possible and teach others anything I can.
And have truckloads of fun... of course.

PHILOSOPHY

To grasp an understanding of as many aspects of life as possible.
To collect wisdom from as many sources as possible.
To experience as much of what life has to offer as possible.
To take as many opportunities as possible.
To have lots of interesting stories to tell and few regrets.

"Dream as if you'll live forever; live as if you'll die today" James Dean

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined couch surfers and so am currently hoping to make use of others' generosity. One day, though, I'll be able to repay in kind and will welcome wayward souls to my sofa.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a newbie. Have only slept on friends couches.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can cook some things pretty well but at the same time want to be able to cook lots of things really well!
I'm a bit of a tea connossieur, and have some mad brewing skillz. I am very willing to teach the joys of tea!
I speak a bit of french but would really like to be better at it.
I'm pretty open to trying new things if people are willing to teach.
