About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to travel until i encounter the meaning of life! (haha)

ABOUT ME

I love meeting new people and doing things that I've never done before. I'm a fiery independent type and generally want to live everyday to its fullest. I really think that time is our most valuable commodity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm traveling right now but as soon as I have a couch I will be more than happy to host as many people as I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been surfing for about 3 years. I often sleep in my vehicle so I haven't built up a very large couch surfing friends base but every single experience that I've had with this project has been awesome.

Interests

I usually have some sort of project that I'm working on while I'm traveling relating to art, film, writing, music etc. Good conversation, food, art and music are probably my favorite things in life.
