CURRENT MISSION

Looking to set up a lazy man's sustenance farm in Borneo

ABOUT ME

I'm an American third culture kid who grew up in Singapore and Tokyo. I love to travel and have been to 30 countries or so.

After working in IT for three years in Singapore and America, I traveled around the US in my minivan for almost a year. Then I was back to Southeast Asia to learn about permaculture by volunteering on little farms in Malaysia and the Philippines. Now I'm in Sabah, Malaysia looking for land where I can put some breadfruit in the ground and chill out for a decade or so... and finally host some Couchsurfers!

PHILOSOPHY

Simplify, simplify!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Trying to meet interesting people.

Intereses

My interests are pushing myself out of my comfort zone (trying to live Eleanor Roosevelt's "Do one thing every day that scares you"). I love movies, reading, hiking, talking to people, and walking around new places. And eating a lot.

PATRIOTISM, n. Combustible rubbish ready to the torch of any one ambitious to illuminate his name.

In Dr. Johnson's famous dictionary patriotism is defined as the last resort of a scoundrel. With all due respect to an enlightened but inferior lexicographer I beg to submit that it is the first.

-Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary, 1911
