CURRENT MISSION

Cryptocurrency writer/editor at BeInCrypto - https://beincrypto.com/author/ryansmith/

ABOUT ME

I'm a walking contradiction. My life has taken many twists and turns and through it all I learn.. sometimes I don't want to conform for non-conformist sake. I am deeply drawn to the mysteries of the universe, the source of all creation.

Travelling is the coolest way to find out how diverse life really is :D

I express myself through the creative arts.. through my fascination with technology, my interest in nature, my desire and enjoyment of solving problems!

PHILOSOPHY

See others as another aspect of myself

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host, organise events, surf couches. The idea, beyond CS is to better understand the diversity of all of life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Awesome, people have opened their hearts and homes to me. Is there a better way to travel?
