CURRENT MISSION

To experience the world one culture at a time.

ABOUT ME

Love to travel and talk to people different than me. Love to be happy and smile in an given situation. One of my strengths is to try to find the best perspective. I'd rather you find out about me when we spend time together.

PHILOSOPHY

I consider my self an engaged Buddhist and try to follow the eight-fold path. Right View, Right Intention, Right Speech, Right Action, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration.

Be where you are, and that is all. Be Here Now.

New to couch surfing. But this type of thing is right up my alley

I love random travels and taking my time. I love long lunches, reading, travel, wrestling, wine, and the occasional video game. Special place in my heart for coin-flip road trips.
