"I am learning that being happy involves detaching yourself from a fixed set of outcomes. Just because we think we deserve it, doesn't mean it will happen. But that doesn't mean that we stop caring about the things that matter to us. On the contrary, going through life as honest and as full as you can...letting people know how you feel, being good at what you do and just being good, are rewards in their own right."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've realized that life is too short to be spent on one place alone. I plan to do a series of solo trips in the coming months. Obviously, Couchsurfing provides a great platform if you're traveling on a budget. I also find it fascinating to meet new friends and travel with fellow couchsurfers!
