Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Home is wherever the heart dwells. We tend to become attached to places that welcome and entice us in various ways. Being a global trotter however demands a strength of heart for leaving behind, even momentarily, everything that captivated us in the lands we crossed. It resonates with a stoic and bold quality of character I cherish.

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly dance to the beat: in some ways it's like a language, a way of being that you incorporate. Latino, Pop, Indie Rock, FOLKs... That kind of "savour the moment" vibe that points to something transcendental inside of you at the same time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Attended an international school at a relatively early age. That really was a great deal in my life and shaped me tremendously as a person.

Teach, Learn, Share

“This too to remember. If a man writes clearly enough, anyone can see if he fakes. If he mystifies to avoid a straight statement, which is very different from breaking so-called rules of syntax or grammar to make an effect which can be obtained in no other way, the writer takes a longer time to be known as a fake and other writers who are afflicted by the same necessity will praise him in their own defense. ― Ernest Hemingway, Death in the Afternoon

Surprise me! I think everyone who comes into our lives is a teacher. I like to observe attentively and strive to live in the present, for it is the only moment that truly exists.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have great language skills - to some extent symptomatic of my reading load. I cherish exchanging ideas with people who are coming from an entirely different cultural perspective. And perhaps most importantly, I love learning, sharing whatever comes to mind, good vibes, humour and seeing opportunity where people tend to see only doom.
