About Me

There two philosophies that I live by:

1) Perspective is a bitch.
and
2) People are different, and difference is a really good thing!

I just moved to Whitefish, MT with my girlfriend and our dog.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I both host and surf. Ive done more surfing than hosting in the past, but thats only because im part gypsy and dont always have a place to actually host CS'ers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first CS experience was during a ski trip with some buddies in BC, Canada. Nuts! Our host had 5 shots of whiskey lined up in his kitchen for us when we arrived. One shot for each of us travelers, and then one for himself. Needless to say, it was a crazy first CS experience.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving was definitely something that left me wanting more! If you haven't done it, i highly suggest it! Also hitching throughout NZ was pretty enjoyable, aye!

Teach, Learn, Share

From a recent camping exreience in which we got a little "turned around," I learned that one can never be too prepared. Continuing, I'm now convinced that there is no such thing as a "rountine" hiking/camping trip.
