CURRENT MISSION

Travel the country, couchsurf and meet amazing people.

ABOUT ME

I'm a musician, writer, hiker, bookworm and many other things, yet I try to avoid defining myself or others. Traveling is in my blood and I try to see new places as often as I can. My goal is to experience as much as possible in the time I'm given. I recently spent 2 months in the North Cascades hiking and climbing which was an amazing experience.

PHILOSOPHY

“Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Life is a journey, not a destination.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Always do what you are afraid to do.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”
-Mark Twain

Teach, Learn, Share

I read a lot. I play guitar. I enjoy conversations regarding books or music. I have taught guitar before and I could possibly teach you, or show you new things.
We each see the world in our own way- why not share your view, and I'll share mine.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation,traveling stories and respect.
