Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
This is, not, the dress rehearsal.
ABOUT ME
I'm interested in meeting people, most people. Travelling has always been on my agenda having something of a nomadic childhood between the US and Scotland and other places, I like the outdoors, cooking, running, yoga, bouldering, and most kinds of tea.
PHILOSOPHY
Acknowledge that fear and doubt exist and choose to move forward anyway.”
“the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.”
― Jack Kerouac, On the Road
Be the change you wish to see in the world-- Gandhi
Sometimes people are beautiful
Not in looks
Not in what they say
Just in what they are
- Markus Zusak
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've surfed a couple of times, neither time was intricately planned but all have been lovely experiences that I'll never forget... I've hosted friends from couchsurfing but i suppose that doesn't count. I was working in a hospital in a more or less rural area for two years, which was not on the rador for many potential couchsurfers.
