I could tell you that I used to be an engineer. I could tell you that I read often. I could say I think, make jokes, learn magic card tricks, run Facebook groups, solder electronics, and conduct sociological experiments.

However, I don't know who I am really. So, I quit my high paid job to work simple jobs and travel to find myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to meet new people, offer my views, hear other people's views, learn, live, and love. I would love to tell my stories of adventure so far. I would love to hear yours.
