ABOUT ME

I always ask myself: am I staying in my comfort zone today? And occasionally, when the answer is yes, I'll find a way to step out and experience something new.

PHILOSOPHY

The fun is in the trip.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've couch surfed before, and now I am hosting. I also continue to spread the word of couch surfing!I'd like to get more involved with CS, in particular the site's back-end.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2008, I stayed at Yuji's in Tokyo for a week with Vanessa, then afterwards I went to Shoji's in Kyoto. Incredible experience, and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Interests

I rock climb, play guitar, and program in my free time.

Music, Movies, and Books

I can listen to Pink Floyd any day. Recently, I've been listening to the Stepkids, Blue Scholars, and Phish.Kurt Vonnegut is my new favorite author.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went soaring once! Felt amazing to pilot a vehicle moving in additional dimensions. It was with an instructor.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach someone the basics of rock climbing, how to play a guitar, juggle, edit videos, or do anything with computers. Of course, in return I'd like to learn a new skill from said person!
