About Me

CURRENT MISSION

India. Survive the gastronomic onslaught and find the courage for for skiing in the Himalayas and swimming in the Indian Ocean

ABOUT ME

28 years old. Professional. Athletic. Adventurous. Free-spirited. One night I'm up staring through telescopes, wondering at the beauty and enormity of the universe. The next night I'm up partying with my friends at the bar. I like to work hard and get things done, but I will never lose my curiosity for things beyond my boundaries. I will always push the limit, and will always welcome the company of friends who are willing to do the same.

PHILOSOPHY

Explore everything, inside and out. Be passionate about life. Feel emotions. Love. Hate. Hug. Hurt. It's all part of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Music, Movies, and Books

I like movies that explore to humanity's seedy underbelly. American Psycho. Scarface...anything gang related really. But I'm just as easily moved by sappy melodrama.
I generally read cheap, trashy novels in between books on philosophy and neuroscience. They help keep the motor running ;)
As for music, I tend to choose according to mood. Techno drives me through the day. Angry rock gets me out of bed and through traffic on the way to and from work. Jazz or latin help me cook creative meals...
