CURRENT MISSION

Live and learn, or die stupid

ABOUT ME
I just recently looked at couchsurfing/my profile for the first time in almost a decade; not much has changed! I’d like to think I have...

I want to travel before I get caught up in a real job.. the world is a big place... travel is more or less my life now, so i'll probably never get a real job

PHILOSOPHY

A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not why ships are built

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Talk as well as listen, listen as well as laugh. I’ve been off the couchsurfing scene for almost a decade now, however I think I’m ready to dive back in again....

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Greece, Denver, Japan, Turkey, Belgium, Germany, Australia (lots)
I once lent a random guy my hammock as he had managed to make it all the way to the mountains without a tent... It was returned wrapped up with a bottle of Jim Beam, what a nice lil surprise whiskey blanket the next time I went camping!
My town isn't really classified as a travelers destination, but if people come Im willing to entertain if I’m around!

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I love talking about the world, and learning about it from every point of view. Some of the best nights of my life involve sitting outside at a strangers under the stars, drinking red wine and discussing the places we call home. Not a night goes by when I don’t consider becoming a complete nomad...
