About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To look back on my mid-20s with fond memories and without regret

ABOUT ME

Medium in stature, slightly toasted during summertime, loves the west coast, fil-am - meaning Filipino/American mix, loves animalias, been-there-done-that with automotive tuning, anchor, aviator, ambitious, loves Japanese brews, respects elders, loves his family, tired of adjectives and writing about hisself in third person

PHILOSOPHY

Be the chess player, not the chess piece.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing only for now until I have my own place. Even then it may be difficult to spare a couch considering I'm gone for days at a time, but where there's a will, there's a way! Yay!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None as of yet.

Interests

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, hot air balloons, unpowered gliders, traveling (obviously huh?!), all kinds of musica, the Arts, old school video games, the beach, sports cars, all types of aircraft including piston and turbine, Jet-A powered tubes.

I'm not too crazy about phones or electronics. I do have an ipod nano and that's sufficient for me.

Girls fall in here somewhere :)

Cultural adaptation, Japan, languages (tempting to tackle more than one at a time), truly relaxing moments, laid back people, and I really mean laid back people, and of course squishies, as I am a squishy. Don't ask, just accept...

Music, Movies, and Books

Wow, where to begin..? Not a big movie freak but I do like books and music. Too lazy to even think about it (pilots are lazy)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen & stayed in Boracay in the Philippines, which is the most heavenly experience on the planet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to design a killer website and basics of piloting aircraft. Anything else may or may not be improvised ;)

Countries I’ve Visited

Belize, Colombia, France, Guam, Mexico, Philippines

Countries I’ve Lived In
