About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be authentic. To learn, to laugh and to continue to grow as a person.

ABOUT ME

I am living in Fort Collins, CO at the moment. I consider myself a fun, loving and appreciative person. I have been given incredible opportunities in this world, something I truly appreciate everyday and never want to take it for granted. I am passionate about music, the worlds diversity in culture, adventure, photography, travel, and the environment. I love meeting new people and I love experiencing new things. Thirsty? I like coffee AND beer, sometimes even at the same time!

PHILOSOPHY

I live to learn, continuously search for inspiration and try to practice balance in work, play, and study. Also, always learning to laugh at myself, life's way too damn short.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I see couch surfing as a great way to meet people, make friends and continue to learn about the world. Im up for a coffee, a beer or anything in between.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I consider myself an appreciative and thoughtful person. From crashing on innumerous friends couches, to newly introduced friends in a foreign country, I like to think of myself as a kind and respectful guest. I have couch surfed in Nepal, Vietnam, Germany, Cambodia, and New Zealand and have made great friends in all of these places...
