About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See the world, and show others mine. And have a blast doing it.

ABOUT ME

I still feel like I just graduated from uni, but since then I've spent some time living, working and wandering in some of the most beautiful places on Earth.

I want to see as much of the world as I can while I'm still active enough to enjoy it.

This may not say much, but give it a shot:

Sometimes I'm pretty wild, and sometimes I feel like a good talk. It all depends on the time, place, and company.

PHILOSOPHY

This one's tough. I'll come back for you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host, surf, recommend and vouch. Lately I've been doing a lot more hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed on five continents, but some of the most interesting experiences have actually been hosting. About a year ago I moved to Korea and lucked into a pretty spacious apartment, so whenever anyone passes through my relatively out-of-the-way city, it's easy and comfortable to get to know them.

Interests

Long walks on the beach?
I just want to do anything different or fun.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading, watching, and listening.
I'm all about the good movies, and bad ones too--comedies, dramas, thrillers, anything.

I like all kinds of music, but for me, the best is rock.

Mark Twain's shorts are really great. Jared Diamond. Orwell. Tim Cahill.
I read much more nonfiction than fiction, but I looove dystopian stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I helped place the marker for the South Pole of the planet Earth.

Teach, Learn, Share

More than anything, I really just want to live life and learn as much as I can about people and places.

I'm struggling to learn Korean at the moment.

Countries I’ve Visited

Andorra, Argentina, Bolivia, Croatia, France, Germany, Guatemala, Hungary, Italy, Mexico, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Antarctica, Germany, South Korea, Spain, United States
