About Me

CURRENT MISSION

live until i die...

ABOUT ME

I don't have enough flare at the moment to make this super readable but here goes. I absolutely believe in living life to the fullest and never well here's how I feel "the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!" that's Kerouac. I just finished college in California and now I'm off traveling for a bit with my bike! I love cycling (of course), cooking, reading, talking, drinking tea with conversation, exploring, sharing, seeing new places, ah I could go on for a while.

PHILOSOPHY

See the world and help others along the way. Or help others and see the world along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My tiny abode in Berkeley, well there isn't one there now because I'm traveling but there will be come school time! My parents live about 45 minutes from SF in an amazing beach city called Half Moon Bay and I think I could set someone up with them--I haven't asked!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with assorted hosts from Beirut down to Cairo-oddly enough I didn't sleep on a single couch though. They were all beds! Had a great time in large part due to the people I met on this site. I believe in it. Oh and I brought all my hosts gifts from America!
