CURRENT MISSION

Avanti, sempre avanti

ABOUT ME

I have a number of colorful nicknames, any of which you are free to use: Noahleh, Opera Man, DC Red, The Noah Constrictor, The Arab, El Gato Blanco, The Klingfish, El Dueno, Noah the Jew, The Frenchman (allegedly) or That Jerk Who Says Those Sarcastic Things.

If you want me to cook for you or write a song in your honor, all you have to do is ask.

PHILOSOPHY

If you're busy all day you won't have time to be sad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people whenever I can. I go to meetings.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love hosting people. I've only been able to CouchSurf three times but it was a great experience. Don't expect everyone who messages you to read your whole profile and memorize your likes and dislikes; the human connection comes later, not through the internet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've stood underneath a thunderstorm at the Falls of Iguazu while the sun broke through the clouds over them.

I taught English in Vietnam, the Philippines and China.

I've sailed around Halong Bay and explored the caves therein.

I guess that's three things. Math was never my favorite subject.

Teach, Learn, Share

Apple slices dipped in lemon juice will not turn brown as fast.

A better way to stand up - raise your right arm and left knee, then roll to the right. You'll be amazed.
