CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to salsa dance with the world

ABOUT ME

I only have one passion in life: traveling. I love to meet new people from around the world and learn from them. I consider myself to be a citizen of the world. I'm very laid back. I just want to have fun! Sometimes too much fun! I'm in love with the new. I'm always willing to try new things. There is no telling what I'll be up to next or where I will be heading.

PHILOSOPHY

Live each day as if it were your last because one day it will be. So laugh as if its your last laugh. Cry as if your shedding your last tears. Make love as if its your last time and so on...

"An eye for an eye will make the world go blind" Mahatma Gandhi (I try to implement this philosophy into my life.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Don't know yet...I am still a couch surfing virgin!

Interests

Cooking and eating, beaches and hammocks along with an endless supply of rum and coke, dancing until the sun comes up, new cultures, art museums, poetry, writing, creative activities, learning new languages, whatever I'm in the mood to do...I will try anything at least once ;)

Teach, Learn, Share
