About Me

CURRENT MISSION:
- To experience new things and to inspire others in any way I am able to.

ABOUT ME:
-I am a student studying Computer Science, although I spend my summers camping and travelling. I generally have an optimistic and enthusiastic mindset and I am open to trying new things!

PHILOSOPHY:
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost,
The old that is strong does not wither,
And deep roots are not reached by frost.
- J.R.R Tolkien

Only when you have nothing to lose do you have everything to gain.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
