CURRENT MISSION

Get out. Untether?

ABOUT ME

24 and living in wonderful Portland, Oregon.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything worth attaining can be so by conscious thought. While I try hard to live by that principle, I do slip from time to time. But the human experience is made full by the ability to experience everything life has to offer. No man is an island, bu no man should be tethered as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed more than hosted, but I'm open to both. Unfortunately, I won't be in Las Cruces for longer than July, so hosting may be tenuous at best. But ask anyway, it doesn't hurt!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had some wonderful experiences with some incredibly welcoming people in the Pacific Northwest. I've housed only one surfer, but she was courteous and interesting. I've had nothing but positivity from CS.

Interests

I'm a big fan of music. I try to attend as many concerts as I can, even if it requires crossing state and county lines to do so. I make my own music as well, self producing in my apartment, nothing serious but enough to content me and a small group of other people. I enjoy life outdoors as well, as nothing can be more exhilarating than a breathtaking hike or diving off a 50 foot cliff into chilled river water.
