Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To make friends and take my sense of adventure around the world
ABOUT ME
I recently graduated from Carnegie Mellon University and live in Washington DC. I love to travel and try new things. I am very friendly and I smile ALL the time. I like to meet new people, do anything outdoors, and I love to go out at night. Most of all, I love to eat. I love to cook and my heaven is eating at hole-in-the-wall places with amazingly creative dishes. I'm a very relaxed guy who is content with hanging out watching the sun set from a mountain top or motivating to go out all night. i just love adventure!
PHILOSOPHY
You can't leave footprints in the sands of time sitting on your butt, and who wants to leave butt prints in the sands of time.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Couchsurfing was a huge part of my travels abroad. I met lots of unique and interesting people that I will never forget. Here in America, I hosted and loved every minute of it. I also try to attend CS events and spread the word about how sweet CS is.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I surfed twice in Romania, once in Cluj (very cool city) and once in Brasov (vampire country). Just finished surfing in Pilsen, Czech Republic and am surfing to Bratislava, Poprad, and Krakow. I have also hosted in Pittsburgh.
Interests
I love sports. I have played football and ice hockey at my university in Pittsburgh. Rafting, Cooking, all types of Music, snowboarding,and I love to talk about anything and everything and I like to meet interesting people. I like swimming in rivers, drinking beer and listening to live music in the sun. I enjoy getting lost, climbing mountains, and snow.
