About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to figure out what its all about.

ABOUT ME

I started working a year ago, which brought me to New York. Spent a little time there before getting sent to San Francisco for a couple of months, then shortly after that to Sydney...

I'm interested in meeting new people, and just hanging out. With this kind of job, I can't really say that I have a true "home", as I've been traveling so much that my own apartment back in New York barely sees me. Home is wherever family and good friends are - which I hope to meet more of through couchsurfing.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in the moment.

I know I pay the price that comes with optionality, but things generally tend to work out in the end...sometimes even better than you could have initially planned for.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm interested in hanging out with people who are passing through the same places that I am.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have been to a few couchsurfing outings on the msg board. Hoping to eventually be able to host or be hosted.

Interests

Exploring new cities, drawing (I sketch mini portraits in pen), going for walks, coffee, music (piano specifically if anyone interested in playing), good food and drink...the usual!

Overall, I'm pretty open to trying new things.

Music, Movies, and Books

Non-fiction books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm not as well traveled as I'd like to be, but recent moments that have really impacted me:

1. the hustle and bustle of new york. moving there and being in the middle of it puts alot of perspective on things (good and bad)
2. watching the sunrise over the great wall of china before anyone else got there.
3. sunrises, sunsets, and the southern night sky while camping at uluru.
