I'm 31 years old, work in a very high stress job and I'm recently separated. I'm very much exploring who I am and the new places I go and the constant evolution in between which is wondrous.

ABOUT ME

I'm extremely respectful of others, helpful, I can talk about sports/philosophy/politics/everything really for hours if I'm engaged in conversation. If not, I'm incredibly respectful of others privacy and their individualism.

PHILOSOPHY

"He not busy being born is busy being born is busy dying" and that all people should be treated with dignity and respect as the complexities of an individual are too great to stereotype or generalize.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't formally couched surfed, but I did sleep on a lot of couches during college of friends of friends who i didn't know so i guess that counts.

Interests

I enjoy going to museums, traveling, cooking, playing/watching baseball, football, soccer, tennis, getting into philosophical yet sarcastic conversations without being an ass.
