I promised myself that by my birthday last year I'd fulfill my big dream of cutting all location ties and traveling full-time. Last June, a week before my birthday, I left my job and my lease and made good on my word.

I completed 10000+ miles of an epic road trip across North America that included Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Nevada, California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Montana and Canada! (Calgary, Banff, Vancouver). I camped a significant number of nights, visited more national parks than I can count, hiked the Grand Canyon floor-to-rim, and had the pleasure of visiting several of my best friends.

Since then I've been to Korea, and Japan, and settled in Taiwan for the last few months.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mostly by hosting, thus far, but I've just started surfing and experiencing the other side of things. It seems to be just as great!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

From my very first two guests, I was hooked. I had an incredible time and I now count them among my permanent friends. Couchsurfing seems to attract a certain kind of people with an independent spirit—my kind of people.
