CURRENT MISSION

to learn more about myself and the world, and to contribute positively to the human experience

ABOUT ME

I love to learn about the world and about people. I am open minded, tolerant and friendly. I like traveling to new places and discovering new things about familiar ones.

PHILOSOPHY

some things are up to you, most things are not up to you. things not up to you include the past, everything anyone else does and most of what happens in the world. if you want to be happy, focus on the small number of things that are up to you and learn to accept the rest.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been lucky enough to be hosted a bit here in the States and quite a bit while traveling in France. I have found CS to provide an incredibly rich and rewarding travel experience and I would hope to be able to provide the same for some guests.
