CURRENT MISSION

To meet, experience and see as many people/things that roll my way

ABOUT ME

Since my senior year of High School I’ve embarked on a semi-transient path. Directly after finishing my four years of school I trekked through several European countries, stumbling my way through with my pack. Since my return flight to the states I’ve dedicated myself to pursuing a career as an equestrian. This current road has afforded many chances to meet and experience an abundance of people. I’ve found myself landing in many states across the Eastern US, in the past few years as I pursue riding. With T. S. Elliot in my back pocket I’ve drifted in search of my break into the horse world. Aside from horses, I immerse myself in literature, music and experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Most of my thoughts are grounded from some old beatnik poem or old Theologian. The things I find myself saying often stem from one of these two. The way I see it there is only one thing that we can take along with us and that is our experiences. So, "carpe diem" live life to the fullest without harm to others, gather friend like a child gathers flowers and learn from these things while preparing for the next day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My thoughts are that we are only given one life, unable to take anything with us, therefore people must thrive on the experiences afford them. Couch Surfing provides wonderful outlet for unlike people to gather, share coffee and learn each others lifes. From these experiences people are able to grow.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far my Surfing days have been limited to none, atleast through this site. Yet-like many people that have come before this generation-I've found myself on many a stangers couch, learning their story.

Interests

There is a constant soundtrack to my life playing in my head; music is my drug. I listen to a lot of folk, Alt/folk, blues, classic rock, but Bob Dylan always finds his way into the mix. Aside from tunage I do alot of reading. My thoughts are that anything I do could find it's way into a book-a book I doubt anyone would read. Rock climbing really grabs my fancy and is somthing I've been pushing. Apart from these things, I spend everyday riding horses as I am trying to make it as a professional rider.
