About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experiencing life outside a cubicle

ABOUT ME

I'm currently on a 6 month trip around the western hemisphere, I've had my fill of hostels during this trip and would like to experience something different!

I will be traveling through Europe for the next 3 months on an Eurail pass. I have no set plans, just destinations I would like to be, cultures I would like to experience.

I am easy to get along with, open to new experiences and meeting new people and making them laugh. I am absolutely useless with languages (after traveling South America for 2 months, the only spanish phrase that stuck was "un cerveza por favor!"), but I manage to get by using charades or elaborate diagrams.

PHILOSOPHY

I have no personal philosophy, I might have at one stage in my life, but now I just take each day as it comes I've learned that if things aren't going well, just leave it all behind and go traveling!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am traveling, so am currently couch-less. Depending on my experience over the next 3 months of attempting to couch surf I guess I would be more open to hosting fellow couch surfers in my home!

I love all kinds of music, from hip hop and R&B to indie and alt rock.

Movies are a great way to unwind after a hard day at work, as such I've seen a great many of them! I have no specific tastes when it comes to movies.
