About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To finish my thesis in time to graduate in May

ABOUT ME

I'm a Masters' student at the University of South Carolina introduced to couchsurfing by my girlfriend and roommate, Brittany Cook. I enjoy being outside, listening to all sorts of music, traveling, and having fun!

PHILOSOPHY

Laissez les bons temps rouler (let the good times roll)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Haven't had a chance to participate in it yet, but am looking forward to building up my profile

Interests

most anything outside (hiking, paddling, biking, etc.), music, beaches, going out with friends. I enjoy interesting, open-minded people and good times.

Music, Movies, and Books

music - anything bluesy, classic rock, string music, jazz, jam bands, brass bands; movies - generally like funny movies (enough sadness and drama in the news...), also like mockumentaries, assorted indie/foreign flicks; books - grew up reading Hemingway, now into naturalist writings from Thoreau to Aldo Leopold and Edward Abbey. I've also always been entertained by a good Grisham or Vonnegut.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched the sun rise after sleeping on the roof of a log cabin high in the Rocky Mountains of New Mexico. Absolutely amazing, I would highly recommend this experience for anybody who has ever enjoyed being outside anywhere.

to learn: Would you prefer these listed alphabetically or chronologically? Don't even know where to begin...
