CURRENT MISSION

Traveling, enjoying life, sharing the beautiful things surrounding us

ABOUT ME

Seen as quite nice...love a good laugh, preferably the british sense of humour for those who know what I mean.

Married with two lovely kids and a tiny little cuddly dog.

Not afraid to share a pint or two, nor chilling out on a mountain or in a tropical forest. Would love to dive some more, the world "under there" fascinates me. A good movie, nice music, books, art and football (yep the proper one where you play with your feet) are other things that gets me ticking.

Hugs to all the people with big warm hearts out there, the world needs you!

PHILOSOPHY

Yep I believe in love, the more you give the more you get! Solidarity, justice, a concious way of living towards other people and our world are other guiding stars for me. Read a nice thing on a wall in Sucre, Bolivia that I will bring with me:
Vive la vida que tu amas!
Ama la vida que tu vives!

Which translates:

Live the life you love!
Love the life you live!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
