Boone Sanders 2016:
Hello! I go by Boone "HollyWood" Sanders - self-proclaimed, one day universally recognized! I'm a big dreaming, hard working, AWESOME motha... wait, that's the HollyWood in me... let me start over.

Hi, my name is Boone! Currently I am a traveller that has relocated to New Zealand. After graduating from college with the MOST BORING DEGREE IN THE WORLD, I moved to the promise land - Australia. I spent some time working at a cafe with great people and roaming the lands.

I will continue talking aloud whilst typing- I love the sound of my own voice and believe everyone should feel the same about theirs. In my free time I: youTube/vlog, my channel is called STATUS: MADNESS, feel free to check it out; listen to rap music - the witty kind, none of that trap stuff (okay, okay I sometimes like that too); and explore random places. BIG, BIG FAN OF WATCHING MOVIES.

I'm a conversational sprinter. The first hour will be the most interesting conversation of our lives, the next two hours we can chill!

Life motto - I love this question. PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION

Hey... I appreciate you!

Boone Sanders 2014:
Hello! My name is Boone Sanders. My mission, if I so choose to accept it, is to inspire others to be the exact individual they wish to be; become the hero of my own story; rescue a damsel in distress; fight off all the bad guys in order to protect the ones I love - oh, and all of this while balancing an inner Shakespearean-est act that oscillates on a scale of "knowing exactly what I should do" to "oh dear, god help I have not a clue what is going on!!"

PHILOSOPHY

"What counts in the ring is what you can do after you're exhausted. The same is true of life." -Muhammad Ali

"Even after all this time the sun never says to the earth, 'you owe me.' Look what happens with the love like that, it lights the whole sky." -Hafiz

"Life is like a box of chocolates." -Forest, Forest Gump

Traveling

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not actually used this site to travel before, however, a friend and I had a lifetime of adventure while hitching through Japan for a month. I was able to integrate with this society and meet many unique individuals. The experience was most influential and left me with many full tales of Noriko-san, toriaizu, Hokkaido, and the friendliest of run-ins with the keisatsu!
