CURRENT MISSION

Drive towards my goals, and enjoy the ride!

ABOUT ME

I'm a nonchalant kind of guy with an urge to try (nearly) anything once and who lives to experience all cultures. I am far from finished! Over the years, I have become an early riser simply because I find I accomplish so much in the morning. Usually a morning jog, but don’t worry; I am a ninja (quiet) with the coffee machine. I will eat ANYTHING that is culturally accepted at the location in question. (Just ask me what I’ve eaten lol) & I'm always up for some good tunes (I love live bands!)

but YOU really have to meet me and see for yourself.. :D

PHILOSOPHY

Seek out the biggest goals you can imagine, reverse-engineer them into smaller goals, and then do the same with those goals, until all you have left is one small step needed today. From there, just lean into it, and build momentum.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If I've got a couch to lend, ITS YOURS!!
If I see you hitchhiking, I'LL PICK YOU UP!!
If you need directions, I'LL BE YOUR GUIDE!!
If you buy me a beer, I'LL DRINK IT!!
(*and hopefully - vice versa)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Wow, I've been Couchsurfing for as long as I've been allowed to have sleepovers!! But officially, it started in Brazil, where I was fortunate to have had the best first host ever! A world famous samba teacher hosted us for Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro. Talk about a life changing experience. Thanks to him, not only was I given memories I will cherish forever, but he also served as a model host, and taught me the true meaning of cultural exchange. THANKS DANILO!
