CURRENT MISSION

Be happy and share it! Aside from that I guess I'm really still searching for a clear cut mission yet, I see no hurry and maybe there is no mission to be found.

ABOUT ME

I have a go with the flow attitude, I get along with nearly everyone, I love listening to music and reading a good book. I was once big into the electronic music scene and need to find something to fill that void(though I do still Party). I think like many people on this site, I love to travel and learn about new cultures and experience all the flavors life has to offer. I hope to move to Asia to teach English with-in the next year or so. I moved around a lot growing up and hope to continue to do so.

PHILOSOPHY

Breath in ......Breath out, the rest will take care of itself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've joined a couple groups and am happy to host as well as surf.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had many non-CS.org associated surfs and have host friends and friends of friends on many occasions. I just recently stayed at a fellow CS'ers place though we met through a mutual friend. I look forward to updating this after my trip to Tokyo. I hope, with some positive experiences!!!

Interests

My interests are always changing but I love to travel, meet new people, see new places. Of course I also enjoy spending time with old friends, partying or just relaxing, playing chess and listening to music. Recently I've taken up Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Thai-boxing. I would love to learn to surf, skydive, base-Jump etc. On an off weekend I like going to a museum , a zoo, nature-hike or anything that keeps my life fresh. I try to go to a few outdoor music festivals each year and used to be really into the electronic music scene but sort of got tired of it all though, I still get out to a club now and again to dance my @$$ off and keep the blood flowing. At the moment I'm most interested in finding some new interests.
