Hello, hoe gaan dit? ;) CURRENT MISSION Searching for a way to live as negative-impact-free as possible, and trying to benefit my environment(s) as much as they benefit me. Learning to give back. Achieve balance. ABOUT ME Laughing, soaking in the sun, run, swim, sea, wind. A mountain's never far away and reaching that peak is a victory that can spread to the rest of you life. Not to mention the high of adrenaline and feelings of ecstasy as you look around at the insane beauty of the world. I want to share this view I feel with people - the reason why we must do the best we can to re-integrate and live at one with our environment, instead of taking more from it than what we are giving back. PHILOSOPHY live simply, eat consciously, move your body 1. Never make Assumptions 2. Don't take anything Personally 3. Be impeccable with your Word 4. Always do your Best remember: sometimes it's good to just get OUT of your head. It can be a bad place to be. Re-ground, surf the next wave (literally) and stay present.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
Why would I pay to stay somewhere impersonal, when I can share a much more personalised stay with someone/people who can share their unique stories and experiences with me, and I with them. Makes for a much more balanced and memorable time in a new place. The perspective is completely unique.
