CURRENT MISSION

To simply be present for the people I love and to not search for the meaning of life.

ABOUT ME

I've been lucky enough to have lived in 6 different countries and have been blessed to met so many people from all walks of life. For years travel has become a life style for me and has shaped a big part of me at the way i see the world. My friends would say that I'm straight forward and honest, interesting and fun to be with who enjoys intellectual conversations and a good laugh about anything.

PHILOSOPHY

It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet and share stories with people from all walks of life. I lived in London on and off for 5 years and most of my friends in London were from Couchsurfing. It was an amazing way to meet people by attending CS events. I attend more CS events and use the hangout app to meet people from the different cities that I visit around the world rather than surf on peoples couch. But the times that i have surfed with people i have had nothing but great experiences. I also found hosting people just as rewarding as being hosted.

Interests

Traveling is a lifestyle for me and has been for many years.
Politics can be a sensitive subject for some people but I enjoy and respect hearing differing views and beliefs.
Photography and videoing/editing is a hobby that challenges and annoys me at times :)
Music moves my mood and emotions.
Sports, I like playing and watching. Depending on the sport :)
Podcast are amazing where I have learnt many things while busy doing other things. : )
Socializing and contact with people is an important human activity that most people take for granted.
