About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be a traveler, not a tourist

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and experience different cultures. I have met a lot of interesting people through traveling and I'm sure I'll meet plenty more.
I am currently a student at DePaul University in Chicago IL. Every chance I get to travel, I take it.

I love my dogs, Hayden the Doberman and The Puppyboy a Dachshund. I usually take my dogs to the local dog beach with hundreds of dogs on Saturday mornings.

I love to try different kinds of foods from all around the world. I love Peruvian, Costa Rican and Vietnamese cuisine.

PHILOSOPHY

Make moves.
Do what you want.
Love Life.
Travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can host people and show them what is going on in Chicago that week. There is always something going on in this city and many exciting things to do!
I have also gone to all the museums and taken all the tours so I can advise my couchsurfers on places to go and things to see.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had a great deal of couchsurfing experiences as my friends Brandon James and Mark Lawrence are have had many surfers stay with them. Every experience is different and I have had a lot of great times and have met many great people through couchsurfing.

Interests

Hiking, Camping, Snowboarding, basically anything outdoors.
I am also very passionate about food.
