Travelling
Description
Hi soon-to-be friends!
It feels somewhat strange attempting to sell myself as an appealing guest, like I am marketing some fancy new product ("NEW and IMPROVED, now SELF-CLEANING"), but here goes: At my core, I would like to think I am a loving person, and I care about my friends and family deeply. I am always ready to join friends for some impromptu karaoke, hikes, or philosophical banter, and to share laughs all the while. I should also mention that I make a lot of jokes--some of which are even funny!
As for why I want to travel, when I think about meeting new people, learning from them, and building memories with them--these are all meaningful pursuits for me. A few years back and for various reasons, I resolved to live a life that was meaningful to me, and my plans for travel are an extension of that decision.
I look forward to meeting you all!Interests

I know my way around power tools, and have experience with DIY projects. I'm not shy about getting my hands dirty either. If you need tree trunks dug up, or heavy patio stones moved around, I'm your man.
I enjoy pursuing personal projects! I mounted a gymnastic ring support system to my bedroom ceiling and, with the help of a friend, I built an unpowered magnetic levitation system using scrap copper tubing, scrap wood, bismuth, and some magnets I bought online.
I speak English fluently and would love to set up a language exchange!Age
