ABOUT ME

I'm growing, changing and going through phases.
It takes me a while to get to know people sometimes. I'm a firm believer in the use of alcohol as a social lubricant. Even without that I'm still a pretty fun person, or so I'm told.
I've been known to write poetry and some fiction. Usually I just keep it in my head though. It's mildly amusing.

PHILOSOPHY

Shake things up. Don't bully people. Appreciate camaraderie.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am open to as many people staying as my housemates are. I'm meetin folks and gettin to know them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hung out with the couchsurfers that friends have hosted and really enjoyed hearing their stories.

I've been hosting people regularly since May.

I stayed with some nice guys in Galway and had drinks with some people in Cork and had a blast on both occasions.

A group from Pennsylvania came through and we became good friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

went on a week and a half long hike through the rockies when i was younger. there were forest fires a few miles away and the whole sky was turning black!
i crashed a car into a tree when i was 16. the whole front of the car was wrapped around the trunk.
met a man called Jack "The Godfather" DuVal in Cork. he was probably a hitman of some sort when he wore a younger man's gun-belt. also in Cork, I met a sad man named Gary Murphy, the only thing amazing about that experience was how depressing his story was (and that he invited my comrades and i into his home without knowing us at all.
