About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surf Hawaii....but really SURF WAVES in Hawaii! :)

ABOUT ME

I do my best to always be myself...I wear my feelings on my sleeves and express myself without second thoughts!...which sometimes is not always for the best, but you can be sure to get a clear and straight-forward answer from any question you ask me...I also think that there is no other way for any of this to ring truth unless experienced in person or specifically asked about....so please if you'd like to know more ask my friends or myself and either will be glad to express my personality! :)

PHILOSOPHY

A Favorite quote of mine...

"Don't worry about the world coming to an end today...It's already tomorrow in Australia."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am opening my apartment with my roommate to travelers and also willing to assist in entertainment of those who visit both local or not!...I will hopefully also be on the lookout for hosts myself when I decide to pick up my bag and camera for travel myself!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well at this point so far I have merely hosted....not too much surfing just yet, but soon!...and thus far my favorite surfer has now become my roommate and best friend! (Hoang-Chau) HA

Interests

My two TRUE loves are Art and Music...a bit typical but I can't help myself...I paint as much as I can during my free time and play my guitar on average a two hours a day!...other interests include movies, exercising, FOOD, social expansion, games (both video and board), family, friends, animals, school and try to enjoy life in general!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Might not seem like much to others but for me as a true starving artist....I have been featured in quite a few online galleries as well as some great Art Shows local to here in Dallas, TX!

Teach, Learn, Share

Well...have to say I don't think I know too many things that would hold as useful or as a practical skill...but I am always willing to learn with an open mind and teach anything I know...so just ask and I will give a Yay or a Nay!
