PHILOSOPHY

I live to experience new things and to push my comfort zones. I love to be in situations that I've never been in, even if that means it's dangerous. The thrill is what I seek, and a feeling of being alive. I try not to take things too seriously and tend to be very easy going. (Sometimes to a fault)

I see myself as a global citizen with a global mind.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interests

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Snorkeled in Tiomann Island, Malaysia where I caught onto a sea turtle and rode with him for a few seconds... magical.

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water. Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; You put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle; You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash.

Be water, my friend.
