PHILOSOPHY

I am fairly outgoing with people, and I enjoying starting conversations. I have always been a student of language, and would love to perfect what languages I know already. I live my life to see, taste, hear, do, touch whatever I can. I care for people on an intimate basis and possess a graciousness nature, I hope, can be shown through my sincere actions and words. I am a lover, of life, of people, of new places and experiences.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Conversationally, objectively, experiencing new dialects, perspectives, and backgrounds through the act of listening. I appreciate new ideas, methodologies, beliefs because otherwise, how else would I grow my own mind? You can only take so much from a book, when you should really be taking something from someone else's life story.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Although I have had my CS account since 2008, I only recently activated it and have never used it previously. I am entirely new to the CS experience but I look forward to be welcomed/welcoming other's perspectives of the world from their living room couch.

Interessi

Photography, art, reading, hiking, biking, kayaking, motorcycling, music listening, painting, developing my hopes to make a positive impact on the world.
