ABOUT ME

I am a simple man. I like funny things,I like tasty things, I like a bagel with cream cheese,salmon,onion,tomato and 5 capers on top. I enjoy the simple things in life. I love hiking, skating,surfing,snowboarding and basically anything which has a picks of material attracted to both my feet at the same time. I am here on the planet to endure the good and the bad times. Favorably the good. I enjoy meeting new people and making new connections which could last a minute or a lifetime as long as the moment/s are genuine.

PHILOSOPHY

"almost doesn't count" - Me
I think that if you want something you should go out there and get it, even if it seems to far from reality.

-Enjoy the little things
-Find the beauty in yourself
-Call someone your haven't spoken to in years.
-"Don't get too comfortable in one place.You might miss something outside the window."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't really participated up until now. My friend told me about this site about 3 years ago and since then i just been going to school and not paying much attention to it. Since i don't have anyplace to host surfers I figured it was pointless. But recently through much travels to Europe I met a bunch of people in hostels which all had amazing stories to tell, about their experiences surfing. Now I am ready to have some of those as well.
