Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to cleanse the dust from the mirror of the mind.
ABOUT ME
I am a calm, quiet and patient person. I try to enjoy all the little details of simple life, you could say I'm constantly looking for hints or omens. That's mostly how my life is directed: a bit of self-direction, and lots of feeling, intuition and unconscious spontaneity. Don't like to plan things too much, only what's necessary.
I realized that I want to do more travelling while I'm young, so that's what I'm planning on doing. Work, travel, work, travel. Next trip is Brazil/South America, and then most probably Europe (before I'm 25). Then we will see.
I believe in karma in the sense that its very nature promotes living in the moment. Lately, I became very fond of my spirituality and love to take care of its growth. Nowadays I like to meditate under the spell of some good incense.
I do landscaping work in the summer, I play the bass and the guitar in a band here in Toronto. I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, still got lots of friends and family there. I try to visit as often as possible since they charge me with a different energy every time. I love textures and touch. I don't think I'm very good at communicating thru words, that's why I don't talk too much. I'm very comfortable with silences.
PHILOSOPHY
I think I talked a bit about it in all the other fields...If you are really interested you can drop me a line and I'll gladly reply with more details. Or even better, let's meet somewhere in the world and talk about our personal philosophies in person!!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Since I'm a new member I haven't had the chance to get very involved, yet. I am planning to meet new people thru CS in my next trip and, once I am settled, I would love to offer my couch to anyone that needs it. I would love to return the favour to the beautiful people that I'm sure I will meet thru CS!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I just joined CS (Aug,2011) so I cannot say I have any direct CS experience. I have met a lot of wonderful souls that were travelling the world thru CS. All of them highly recommended the site, so I decided to join in and see what I can gather from it. I am currently planning my trip to Brazil, and since I don't know many people down there, I thought it would be a good idea to make friends and share experiences thru CS.
