Hi there!

My name is Connor. I am person very much interested in life. I treat people with compassion and respect.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's an economical way to travel, of course. But it is also a delightful way to meet intriguing and wonderful people.

I am new to this site, so please do not judge me based on the infancy of my profile or my lack of endorsements. From my brief exploration of the site and how it brings people together, it seems to be an exciting experiment in the human condition. This site is an expression of hospitality, curiosity, generosity, exploration, and the general community of human spirit that sometimes seems vacant in the noise of mainstream modernity . Couchsurfing acts as a medium to connect like-minded people that still want to participate in a truly human dialogue. I want to join that conversation.

Interests

Exploration is my most passionate interest. Exploration of places, people, ideas, perspective, consciousness, emotion, etc. I love to play and listen to music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled the complete Ring Road in Iceland last summer by myself and camped the entire way.

Teach, Learn, Share

Accomplishments are transient. Profit cannot be analogous to good for society and the world at large to prosper. Stop worrying so much about what other people think about what you do and say. They're busy worrying about themselves anyway. Live earnestly.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my gratitude and friendship! I am a thoughtful and courteous guest. I will abide by any rule, and I will do everything that I can to hold up 'my end of the bargain'.
