About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To get a mission

ABOUT ME

Looking for new experiences. I'm easy going and enjoy simple things like mirth, merriment and sunshine. Not sure what to get out of this site but would like to broaden my social and cultural network.

PHILOSOPHY

Not delving too deep as this always changes with experiences and age. Happiness is important and the ability to laugh regularly (preferably for a reason though as people look at you oddly otherwise).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Teach, Learn, Share

“It's just a ride and we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money, a choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your door, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one.”
Bill Hicks
