About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to volunteer and travel through Sumatra, Vietnam, Lao and South America.

ABOUT ME

I´m a very relaxed, accepting and interested person. My search for new experiences has led me to squats, skipping, hitchhicking, CS, jumping off high things and generally trying anything new.
I am very interested in conservation and permaculture.

PHILOSOPHY

My life challenges are to accept change in everything around me, to love every living thing and process, and to find a away to live in the moment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host and try as hard as I can to attend as many couchsrurfing events as possible.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had a lot of couchsurfing experiences, hosting, surfing, and attending events. I think the most valuable lessons I have learnt is to always clean up after yourself, be sociable(ie. Don't spend your entire time on the Internet), and be active. Basically, all the things you need to do so as not to be kicked out of a squat.
