CURRENT MISSION

To Experience the world, learn new cultures, see how the rest of the world lives. Meet new friends, laugh, ask good questions, learn.
Ive moved from Los Angeles and currently on a trip around Europe.

ABOUT ME

I recently graduated from Biola University. College teaches you theories about the world but you miss out on the best teacher, actual experience. I grew up in San Diego, love the ocean and the outdoors. I currently live in Los Angeles and have been working in the Green Energy sector. Though I thoroughly enjoy nature, I also have a respect for the city. The city brings out the worst, as well as the best in people. The city shapes culture, and I enjoy being around culture shapers. I have been called easy to get along with, and some have even said a tad bit funny.

PHILOSOPHY

I think "love your neighbor" is short but packs so much detail. Treating others the way you would like to be treated ranks high on the list as well. I have heart that longs for creativity, and new insights. Be humble enough to always continue learning.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing is a beautiful thing. Friends always having a place to stay in different locations can be such a blessing. It allows for new friendships, cultivation of old friendships, and is a loving act towards someone.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I havent had any bad couch surfing experiences to date. Perhaps the worst one was my friends cat jumping on my head all night. If that is the worst experience I have had, I will take it. Friends frequently are sleeping on my couch in Los Angeles and it makes me feel good they feel comfortable enough to ask.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Some of my most memorable moments are road trips with friends. Driving up and down the California coast. The most amazing things I see are how my friends lives are changing. Seeing how age changes peoples desires and focuses. Visiting Italy was pretty cool too : )

Teach, Learn, Share

I would consider myself an expert in Southern California culture. If you want to know what it is like to live here, I can give you a detailed account. I would consider myself a person who can easily make friends. You will always have a friend in Southern California named Daniel Peacock.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A nice meal on me and great conversation. A few laughs, and the opportunity to meet a new friend.
