Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
"When you don't give yourself a specific place to land you never really miss"
"El andar tierras y comunicarse con diversa gente hace a los hombres discretos" - Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
ABOUT ME
This year is The Year of Tiger. I am a tiger. Not really, that's the one of Rabbit, but who cares, I am feeling as a Tiger still:-)
"If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve (or save) the world and a desire to enjoy (or savor) the world. This makes it hard to plan the day"
- E.B. White
PHILOSOPHY
"No creería en un dios que no supiese bailar" Zaratustra-Nietzsche
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Luck: when preparation meets opportunity, and: Hard work plus determination equals success.
Interests
Reading the world. Without undue redundancy, all I can say is that I read the world like an encounter with books of which I am constantly aiming to be the reader that their pages deserve.

“A committee takes hours to put into minutes what can be done in seconds”
This pretty much describes working at the UN.
Teach, Learn, Share
"I tip on alligators and little rattlesnakers, but I'm another flavour, something like a terminator, ain't no equivocating: I fight for what I believe." - Janelle Monae
