About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To do things better than I did the day before.

ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is Andy. I recently moved back to Music City after 2 years of living in a few different places from coast to coast. I've hosted people from all over the world, many right here in Nashville, and always enjoyed it. I've lived in 17 different places in my life (7 States, 2 Countries), and decided that it was time to settle down (well kind of anyway). After much thought I decided that Nashville was the place for me. I like the city, the people, and the opportunities it has provided me.

A couple of years ago I was really involved in Couch Surfing, but had to take an extended leave of absence due to.... Well life I guess. I went back to school in a town where nobody really wanted to visit. Then got a new Job, then even more school, and a girl friend who didn't share my enthusiasm for having strangers from interesting places share culture, laughs, interesting stories, and a couch. So as a consequence I'm sure my response level is pretty low, but I assure you that I will respond even if It's to tell you that day isn't a good one for me.

Couch Surfing is a really great program, where else can you get the opportunity to share cultures, ideas, and some really good times with people from all over the world in the comfort of your own home?

PHILOSOPHY

"Life comes down on simple choice, Get busy livin, or get busy dyin.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined a couple of years ago out of curiosity, and found the experience to be great. I hosted people from all over in Nashville and San Diego. I took a couple years off because I wasn't in the best position to be a good host, and I didn't do much traveling, but now I'm back and looking forward meeting people from all over.
