CURRENT MISSION

I dunno, to have a good story to tell I guess...

ABOUT ME

Had the same steady job for around 3 years now and it's caused me to be a little too stationary. I'm trying to get out and about more and experience new things. I'm a very relaxed and friendly person whose always prided myself in my natural ability to bring people together. I love to go wandering around town looking for the best burrito shop or simply relax and have a beer on my porch.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I'm mostly looking for places to couch-surf but I hope to open my house up for hosting surfers in the near-future.

I only recently discovered this site and created this account in preparation for my upcoming trip to New Orleans with my good friend Patrick.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never used this site before but I've always had a series of informal couch-surfers at the various punk-houses I've lived in across California. Some have been close friends, others acquaintances or touring bands that were playing concerts as my house. For the most part my experience has been quite positive. Been a couch surfer myself a few times here and there and always enjoyed it and tried to be good guest whether that meant helping keep the place clean or simply stocking the fridge.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A few years back I went on a two week long backpacking trip through most of Oregon on the Pacific Crest Trail, it was an amazing experience that I'd love to revisit.
