CURRENT MISSION

Voyage the world, and share perspectives with all

ABOUT ME

Since Graduating from the University of Oregon in 2011 I have taken the opportunity to work a lot of jobs and travel as much as I can. I've met many interesting people and done lots of cool things thanks to the couchsurfing project

PHILOSOPHY

I'd like to change the world for the better. Perhaps I'll do something big, but probably It'll be something small. Even if all I can do is brighten someone's day, hopefully it will reverberate through the people they encounter and so on and so forth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I once hosted an old college buddy who 'couchsurfed' on an extended basis in a spare bed I've got. I've couchsurfed through the American South and South America and had many great experiences

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love that when I get to a new city, it's not a cold unfamiliar place with some monuments. Rather it's a chance to make new friends and experience the local culture in a way I wouldn't be able to otherwise.

Interests

I love learning about history and geography and people, and then traveling and experiencing all the places I learned about first hand.

• arts
• culture
• traveling
• basketball
• geography
• history
