CURRENT MISSION

Live like there is no tomorrow, enjoy life, and see every place the great outdoors has to offer.

ABOUT ME

I love to work hard and have fun with whatever I am doing. I have a strong passion for the outdoors and exploring where I have not yet been before. I'm easy to get along with and enjoy being spontaneous. I recently finished my Masters Degree in Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis and found a great job working at UW-Madison. My wife and I enjoy dabbling in home brewing and love to camp and watch football on the weekends. I also enjoy playing on my ultimate Frisbee team and volunteering for local political candidates.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life like there is no tomorrow, because someday that will be true. Close friends have left me and I am fortunate for that because I appreciate life all that much more. Everything happens for a reason, I believe that very much.

Life and God have been good to me and I intend to not pay it back, but instead to pay it forward. (If you get my drift.)

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been away from Couchsurfing for awhile since my wife and I moved across the country. But now that we are settled in I'd like to get more involved and start hosting again (September. 2014).

In the past I have participated in many CS events, which I really enjoyed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed on my journey from Minneapolis to Seattle and had a GREAT time with it! While there I was in Seattle I was able to host a few wonderful people.

Интересы

Outdoors <--Sums it up. Anything to do with being outside, I do it. I love getting to know new people of any age. Everyone has cool and unique stories and I love hearing all about them and then going out and making my own.

I also love sports, primarily the Packers and the Twins. I could watch and play football everyday all day. Baseball is a close second.

I enjoy good beer and wine. My wife and I enjoyed brewing our own home brews.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Skydiving, and I want to go again. I am knocking down all the things on my "to-do" list. I took a scuba diving class in college. Also a curling class, which was a ton of fun.

I once met Reggie White and Ray Nitschie because our tire was low on air. If you're a Packers fan, then you should know who they are.

The best thing I have ever done was gone to South Africa and traveled the country. It was absolutely amazing and the people were great. I want to go again soon.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I have a lot of learning yet to do. I want to travel, see America, the World, everywhere. I am very fortunate that I even have that possibility at all. I think we should all use the gifts our creator gave to us to make a difference, have a good time, and love life.

Costa Rica, Iceland, Mexico, South Africa
