CURRENT MISSION

I've seen 49 states to date. Now, I think it's about time to see 49 countries!

ABOUT ME

My friends would say I'm a outgoing, talkative, and pleasant fellow to be around. I enjoy conversation of many varieties, especially of music, travel, and film. Sometimes I can be a little corny and/or dry humored as well.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest. Don't let anything hold you down or limit your potential. And while your at it, be genuine and appreciative of all the good things life has to offer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As of now, I'm looking to expand my horizons as much as possible. My current state only allows me to "surf", but I hope to "host surfers" some day and share my experiences with them!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a total CouchSurfing newbie! I've heard amazing things from several people and I thought it was about time to give it a whirl.

Interests

I am an avid independent filmmaker music listener and concert attender, traveller, and occasional reader. Family and friends are also very important to me as I have made many of my fondest memories with them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling to the United Kingdom with my University on a Study Abroad trip was incredibly life-changing. It gave me the opportunity to the world outside of the rose-colored lens of the U.S.A. and even feel a little "out of place". It was amazing to see the varied lifestyle that people live abroad and how it differs from what I grew up knowing most of my life.

A couple years ago I also had the opportunity to travel to the Dominican Republic to work on some mission work with a family friend. My time spent there also provided a distinct view I hadn't experienced before. Witnessing the happiness of people that had so little made me value everything I had more.
