CURRENT MISSION

I work freelance.

ABOUT ME

I'm 22, just out of university and traveling Asia. That's not ALL there is to say about me of course, but I didn't fly halfway around the world just to spend hours in an internet cafe. You'll just have to meet me and find out for yourself!

PHILOSOPHY

"I stay cool, and dig all jive,
That's the way I stay alive.
My motto,
as I live and learn,
is
Dig and be dug
In return"

-Langston Hughes

"To study The Way is to study the self. To study the self is to forget the self. To forget the self is to be confirmed by all dharmas. To be confirmed by all dharmas is to cast off one’s body and mind and the bodies and minds of others as well. No trace of realization remains, and this traceless enlightenment continues without end."

-Eihei Dogen

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I sleep on your couch. With any luck I'll still have enough money to afford a couch when I get home and I'll be able to return the favor.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have no (formal) couchsurfing experience, but I've spent the night on plenty of couches and I know how to clean up after myself and be a good guest.
