CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to experience as much as i can in the time that im here

ABOUT ME

My name is Dan. I am a 29 year old Social Worker/Adventurer/Play Outsider.
I skate/snowboard/surf/hike/bike/run/camp and do basically anything that is fun especially when its outdoors.
I also do martial arts but I've been pretty lazy with that lately.
Im a non sxe vegan who drinks occasionally but is open to kick it with pretty much anyone omnivore, drunk, sxe, whatever.
Im a pretty fun guy and a good host. Ive had countless visitors since I moved to Portland and I love to take them to see all the cool sites around. If you ever want to check out PDX, drop me a line.

PHILOSOPHY

I try my best to have a positive impact and outlook in everything I do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I go to meetups as often as I can. We host occasionally depending on our schedules. I have not yet surfed at anyone's house but hopefully I can make that happen soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just hosting and meetups. Maybe I will surf your couch soon though if I am lucky enough to travel.
