CURRENT MISSION

Traveling and climbing, experiencing many new things and people.

ABOUT ME

I built my bike frame up for a tour. The original plan was Texas to Alaska. It ended up being Dallas to Stillwater, OK. Though, I just got the Alaska bug again. I want to plan it for Spring 17'. I would prefer to spend most of my free time climbing, sometimes that doesn't always work though. I spent two summers in Yosemite working and climbing and then moved to Mammoth Lakes to work at a ski resort and make some real money in the winter. Since then I have been traveling through S.E. Asia. I also moved to Colorado for 2 months but I am now back in Texas. I plan on traveling quite a bit more and living in quite a few more places. I love being in new places, and would like to do a bit more internationally. Long term I want to settle in somewhere close to climbing, so maybe Colorado, California or even overseas. Who knows? More free diving, my current best is 21 meters.

PHILOSOPHY

"Just be, asshole."

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have stayed on a few couches and plan on staying on many more. I now have my own place that isn't my van so I am hosting while I can. CS is not about free couches, it's about free people.

Intereses

Climbing. Traveling. Art/design. Cycling. Games, of any kind. Learning. Fantasy/Sci-Fi. Hiking. Backpacking. Hanging out with wine and the stars. Good people that can expand my horizons.

Algo increíble que he hecho

500 mile bike tour in a cold, wet, sometimes icy and incredibly windy February.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

We can climb. I can teach you how to cook. If you cycle I've got extra bikes. I know lotsa stuff, just ask me. I really want to learn German!

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I have a couch in an efficiency in the heart of Dallas. There is a partial wall separating the bed from living area. I'm about a ten minute walk to the train.
