I made a choice long ago to live life day by day, experiencing every moment as it comes, staying present, not waiting for the next moment. I am always looking for new perspective, new ideas, new life. I try my best to be open. To all people. To all experience. I have been incredibly blessed in my journey. I live very differently than most people in the states. I avoid the norms. I avoid the anger, stress, and negative energy. I have created a life and community that surrounds me with love, acceptance, and grace. I try to enjoy every moment. For money, I build things. For love, I listen. For heath, I eat clean and practice yoga. For you, I give all I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Well, it all started in Chicago. I was introduced to this surfing idea by my friend, the lovely moderator, Lorie. I started going to weekly meetings and before long I was part of the Cs Chicago crew. For the next year and a half I spent great times with so many amazing peeps from all over the world. Epic parties at lories! I hosted some great folks. Mostly last minutes at parties and get togethers. I like to trust people. I have surfed in Berlin, Istanbul, and Budapest. I now live in Omaha with my lover and her two children and I’m not really hosting, but if you are in any kind of need, let me know and i will help you in any way i can. I have a large circle of friends, many that can host and help, so do not hesitate to reach out. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE We were stranded in a snow storm in the middle of Nebraska on my birthday. It was my choice to attempt the trip to see my best friend. I was turning 12. When our suburban got stuck in little Cairo Nebraska, a family of complete strangers took us in for the night. They even put together a little party for me. Its not an "official" CouchSurfing Experience, but thats real life baby! Those people had no idea who we were but opened their home to us!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My buddy and I roamed around Cuba for 3 weeks. No plans, no guides. We just saw what every day brought us. It was an amazing time.

Teach, Learn, Share

please just say whats on your mind and do what makes you feel right. make you own decisions. stand on your own. if youre quiet enough, listen, watch and pay attention, you will hear the soul of the universe. then you just follow it and your life will lay out in front of you. its quite simple really...not always easy, but its real
