Overview
About Me
I am passionate about knowing people and understand how they live their lives. I believe that we can learn from everybody from every part of the society, cultures and mainly world, that's my life.
I am also a software development, computer engineer, social work volunteer, actor and things that life put me on.
Actually I work as a volunteer in a non-profit organization called One World Center, based in Dowagiac Michigan. This organization train ordinary people to go to Africa and fight poverty in countries like Mozambique and Malawi, and as part of our program we have to travel around USA to raise funds for our organization, do some community work or spread the message of work done in Africa that's why we need couchsurfing during these trips.
