CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world and better myself and views of it and its people through such travels. I also enjoy meeting people from all over and practicing my languages

ABOUT ME

I have travelled a lot over the past 7 years, having visited over 50 countries. Spent over 4 months in 5 different countries (Ireland, France, Thailand, Guatemala and Argentina). I enjoy getting drinks with friends, people watching from cafes, learning about new cultures and languages, socialising with all sorts and dancing late. Pretty easy going so let me know.
As of right now I don't really have a home. I am currently travelling Europe but I will officially be living in Madrid, Spain come September 2008 for an LLM program in International Law at Instituto de Empresa.

PHILOSOPHY

I do not subscribe to any particular religion. Although, while I lived in Thailand I really enjoyed learning about Buddhism. I think I believe more in the physical laws of nature than what a sacred book might say but I enjoy hearing both sides of the tale--I understand no one has the right answer, only what is right for oneself.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As of now, I have not really participated other than filling out the profile. I had emailed a few people about possible places to stay and have gotten really good feedback. I really think this is a great idea mixing increased technology with the travel bug!

Centres d'intérêt

I like educating myself. I have been either studying or travelling for the past ten years...usually a combo of both. I also really enjoy movies, night life, reading for pleasure and engaging in physical activity.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

On a bus from El Calafate, Argentina to Ushuia, Argentina I witnessed a car in front of our bus drive off a bridge. We were in the middle of las pampas (no where) and the driver was very badly injured. On the bus were about ten Argentines, myself (American) and an Israeli Doctor who spoke no Spanish travelling about. We pulled the bus over to aid the fallen driver and I acted as a translator in Spanish between the Israeli Doctor and the other bus-goers. We created a neck-splint and supported him out. He may have lost his ability to walk had we not been there with a Doctor and a translator.
