CURRENT MISSION

to learn as much as I can about myself and the world around me

ABOUT ME

I love outdoor activites, ranging from snowboarding, biking, and skydiving/parachuting. I'm all about putting myself in situations where I'm not totally comfortable to grow as a person. In other words, I love facing my fears and think that that's the purpose of life, to conquer your fears.
I am very health conscious and am a vegan for ethical reasons. I am a nonsmoker and try to avoid indoor secondhand smoke whenever possible, so I don't want to stay with someone who smokes indoors.
I usually meditate one hour everyday unless there are extreme circumstances. It's the best time to face your fears/problems.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I'm a college student studing abroad. I don't have a couch available for anyone to sleep in, but when I go back to school in the USA I will. So I will reciprocate eventually to the couchsurfing community. I am a big fan of diversity and am openminded; it's ok if others have different views than my own.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far, I'm new, but that will change soon.
