About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live, laugh, and enjoy. To stand back up when I fall. To bring what I can to the world, and take what it can give me.

ABOUT ME

I'm down to earth, entrepreneurial, friendly and overall am focused on enjoying life. I am somewhat of a goofy klutz with high and good spirits! I find that it's never about the things you do, but rather the people you do them with that makes the experience all worthwhile. Anything in good company is a good time, solo time is a great time too!
I'm not religious but I do put an emphasis on spirituality and finding the true important things in life.
The best medicine is food, laughter and friends!

PHILOSOPHY

Observe, Think, Act. Keep control of your own emotions, and practice introspection. Be mindful of others. Trust yourself, learn, and everything will work out. Most importantly, love. There's not much that can't be done when you apply determination and set yourself up for success. Being positive!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently in Mexico - sometimes I can offer a couch, sometimes I can't - it all depends on my set up at the time, but you're more than welcome if I can accommodate!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed in Cancun a night with my CS host - so far, great experience - looking forward to more!

Interests

I'm genuinely interested in a lot of things. I love to learn and get a cultural sense of where I am.
I do enjoy writing a lot: short stories, essays, plays, poetry etc...
I'm interested in people and hearing their stories.
And I'm also into business and start-ups - I always have ideas and projects :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Milan Kundera is by far my favorite author.

As for Music, I can range from Classical to Reggae to Hip-Hop and some other cool stuf like Gramatik and Zhu! I'll listen to anything that's musically valid.

Overall I enjoy intelligent art: The kind that makes you think and ask yourself questions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Whale watching in Tofino on Vancouver island.
Scuba diving in the Bay of Pigs in Cuba.
Visited The ruins of Tripoli in Lebanon.
Moving around all the time, starting my own business, falling in love...there's too many things!
Selling all my stuff and moving to Mexico for the next little while.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well I speak a couple of languages, I read cards, I can juggle for maybe 30 seconds.
I love being out in nature - I'd be happy to help outdoors or with food in a couch surfing experience.
