CURRENT MISSION

Don´t we only live once

ABOUT ME

Im very outgoing, implusive and i love stupid jokes!haha I like to try everything once and for me everything is an experience, you have to make the most off! Be active, and engage with life!!

I love doing things, whether its building, climbing or drawing something! I like music, but im terrible at playing anything. I like art and have been know to trade sketches for beer!

I find it hard to watch sports on tv, but will try anything and love fencing, swimming and hiking. With people, I always want to know what makes them interesting, or why they do stuff the way they do. I try to listen well and ask alot of questions, im always a talkitive person.

PHILOSOPHY

I like alot of philisophy. Im still putting whole thing together in my head, but i guess i can be sumed up as
"maximise potential happiness by balancing long-term happiness(estacy) and short-term happiness(contentment), through living in the moment with a eye for the future. Memories enrich our lives"

I can explain more but it requires coffee and few spare hours

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Throughly have enjoyed coachsurfing to date. However I do think, its becoming full of people who copy/paste their requests. CS is about people first and foremost, not free sofas!! That said, hosters who want a individually written request, should list more than "travelling" as interests and show a bit of personality!

Interests

I'd be lying if I said I didn't love architecture. But Art, design, photography, painting all get a look in too. If anyone can teach me more about watercolours, I´d love to learn.

I've recently discovered I love mountain hiking and I've been fencing saber for about 5 years now. Always liked swimming. Ultimately I guess i´m more of a land junkie than a sea sports person.

I'm a reader, I tend to keep at least one adventure or classic by my bed. I don´t always read novels and I find reality is stranger than fiction most times!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Beijing for Chinese New Year! One of the most intensely crazy nights of my life.

Climbing the Great Wall of China, alone! Then Sledging down!

Seen 7 shooting stars in one night, sleeping on my roof top! Makes me feel small!

Swimming with Turtles!

Carnival Santa Cruz, my first day in Tenerife! Making friends without speaking spanish yet...

Saved a life! When a tourist broke their leg in Masca valley. 3 of us carried them 3 hours to a boat. Great Fun

Ask and there is more. I keep diaries of all my adventures.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm pretty good at cooking. And I can tell you a little about drawing and painting. I'm pretty good at fixing household things and I've been know to dance salsa once or twice! I'm big into philosophy, sciences and art, so lets get a conversation going!

I´m trying to learn to write stories and I keep a dairy everyday and can definately help improving spoken, written, and reading english.
