About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people. Build a network of friends around the world.

ABOUT ME

Basically, I got really fed up and frustrated with my life, so I decided to sell all my stuff and start doing something different.

I have been training in Martial Arts since childhood, and have even worked as an instructor. So I decided to go to Thailand and train Muay Thai for a while. While there I ended up renting an apartment with a couple that surf and host. I met a number of other people who do this. None of them tried to murder me, so I figured it was safe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm not a weirdo... At least not a creepy one. So I guess I'm helping keep the ratio of normal people up.

Other than that not much. Admittedly, I just moved to LA. That being said, once I figure my way around I'll be happy to go have coffee and show anyone around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The other people I stay with brought me to Chiang Mai for the New Years water festival. We stayed with a really cool girl from this site. That was before I had a profile.

Interests

I train in martial arts. I've been doing pro wrestling for 9 years. I have acted and done srunts in a number of films. As well as just about every other job you can do on a movie set.
I have been doing illustration and painting professionally since junior high. I specialize in comic books.
