About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see as much as I can with very limited funds! People, places, everything.

ABOUT ME

I love a lot of things about life. I'm great at relaxing and I think happiness is a choice. I love music, dancing growing close with new friends, and keeping contact with old ones. I'm almost always up for anything . . . one of my mottoes is 'everything in moderation, including moderation'.

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness is a choice, everything will always be okay. Life is all about experiencing new things and just taking the dive into the unknown.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't really participated yet. I've never had the resources to, although I'd love to show people around Buenos Aires or have people over for an asado. Sadly as a renter I'm not allowed to allow guests to spend the night.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nothing direct. I've let people in between housing in Davis crash in my apartment, and I rarely drive by a hitchhiker that I don't help out.

Interests

Music, Travel, Politics, Cooking, Dancing, Literature. Most anything, really.

  • literature
  • dancing
  • cooking
  • politics
  • traveling
  • music

Music, Movies, and Books

Progressive rock, Classical, Blues. Anything written by Kurt Vonnegut, Science and political fiction. Favorite film: American Beauty, I like a lot of movies though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I performed in front of 30,000 people once. That was invigorating, other than that it's been a bunch of small triumphs. Oh and I've been all over Utah, its incredibly beautiful.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think that I've reflected enough on myself to be able to offer some useful insight on how I've actively chosen to improve the way I live my life.

I really want to learn anything. I'm very aware that I'm extremely ignorant, that there is meaning in everything that I've seen that I don't understand, and even more things that I simply have no knowledge about.

Countries I’ve Visited

United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Argentina, United States
