About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience all that the world has to offer and make this life one adventure after another.

ABOUT ME

Traveling is at the core of my existance, It is the one thing that truly makes me a happy person. I love to experience what various cultures have to offer in music, art, and literature.

I am currently embarking on an eight month backpacking trip through the UK and Europe with a close friend of mine, Pikarin . We will be traveling solely on foot throughout the duration of this trip, which will total to nearly 2000 miles.

*** I returned from this trip 3 years ago and have spent the last two years traveling across the United States and abroad with my love, Tyema. We are now seeking more adventures outside of the contiguous United States and aim to always stay on the move. ***

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Eight years ago I took a three month backpacking trip trough Ireland. I only heard about couch surfing just before I left and didn't know how it would turn out. I met the most wonderful, hospitable people of whom I still talk with today. Couch surfing is a great way to connect
with like-minded individuals around the world.

Interests

I am very interested in music. It is the lifeforce of the soul and brings harmony to the everyday stresses of life. I play a variety of instruments and make rap music. Reading and writing are key attributes to my life and they keep me sane and rational.
