Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted about six couchsurfers in Asheville NC and I have stayed with about six different hosts all in various parts of the US. I also tell all the cool people who live under rocks about couchsurfing!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am a lucky boy. This is an exciting time to be alive!

Interests

I like quiet. I like to remove stimulus, because it is easy to find stimulus in this age of globalization. I like nature and I want to visit everywhere. I like insightful and funny people. I like taking calculated risks and savoring adrenaline. I like dopamine and serotonin. I like making love. I like to find old trees in nature on my motorcycle and photograph them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-I rode a motorcycle 12,000 miles in two months all over the US by myself. From Asheville NC to LA to Portland Or, to Denver, to St. louis, to New Orleans, to Jacksonville and home again. I slept in cornfields and ate free continental breakfast about 75% of the time. (I didnt stay in any hotels)

-Backpacked and rode a motorcycle all over Hawaii with my girlfriend at the time. World class baby.

- When I went ziplining in costa rica 60mph whizzing through the jungle canopy going from treehouse to treehouse.
- The first time I visited the Angel Oak Tree in South Carolina near Charleston. It is about 1800 years old and is the oldest living thing east of the mississippi. Google it. Seriously.
