About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Ready to Host nice friendly guests!!

ABOUT ME

I am a very laid back person that loves life and is always in the look out to stretch a hand for someone in need. I just finished travelling the world last year ( well, most parts of Europe ). I had the most AMAZING experience in my 6 month travel thanks to all the couchsurfers I met, plus all the friends I had in some of those countries. It was INCREDIBLY fun, we did everything, from having anice relaxed pik-nik in Paris, to getting drunk in Denmark...and pretty much every country I visited ( I did however just finished a month of no alcohol-rejuvenating period! )

Don't worry, I can be serious and proper when need be, for for most of the time I like to be happy, funny, dumb and smile at anything I can.

Oh yeah, this whole world travel thing started cuz I decided I wanted to salvage my non existang French when I took tutoring after school but I would fall asleep and one time the teacher got pissed and left, and I need people to tlak to in French to really learn it. So the main goal here is learn French before I come back, but now it evolved to a world wide tour covering for the moment Europe and Asia!

I used to have a snake and a tarantulla...but the girl that took care of them while I was gone decided to take them away ( not any longer my friend ) but now I decided to get two of the coolest funniest animasl ever! I had two carpet sharks!!! ( A.k.a Ferrets ) Rayita and Twig. Very cute, sometimes smelly, and hillarious! And now I have two gatos, Mr Bunkers and Mr Marvelz and they are the most awesome furballs ever!

PHILOSOPHY

Live today as if it is your last. Don't waste time being stressed and freaking out, just get things done one at a time, and if it isn't something that can kill you, there is no need to worry about it.

Life is awesome and we just have one, let's make ours and help others make the most of it!

God gave you life for you to enjoy it, don't limit your actions to plase others, as long as you are respectful of others be yourself....except when it is the man signing your paycheck, then you have to act proper!

Also, learned from many other hosts this request and it's a good idea. Start your Couch request with the name of my cats. If you can't bother take the time to read my profile, I won't bother taking time hosting you. Gracias!
