About Me

My current goal is to combine my love for travel with my love for making digital art. Ask me about the video game I'm recreating based on the modern day Oregon Trail.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to work for couchsurfing as their handyman, when it was a much younger and newer company based San Francisco.

Couchsurfing to this day is still one of my favorite ways to travel. I love meeting new people in their cities. It's the best way to learn about and experience a new culture. I also support the open and free internet, sharing economy and how couchsurfing manages to make the big world seem closer and more connected.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After college I walked 300 miles over 8 months from Tijuana to Santa Barbara. In total I spent a year and a half traveling up the west coast while learning how to program.
