About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to better the lives of those I come into contact with

ABOUT ME

After taking far too long of a break from travelling and Couch Surfing in particular I'm back with a vengeance. Currently living and working in Shatsk as a Peace Corps Volunteer (which means I work and don't get paid for it but live in a great area). I am back to living life as fast as I can so I hope we can meet up!

PHILOSOPHY

Try to always be learning something new. Hard work and perserverance can make up for alot of personal flaws.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Completed one journey from Norway to Spain for two months all via couchsurfing. Attended couchsurfing meetings in Scotland, Belgium and St. Paddy's in Ireland. Hosted a few but hoping for lots more.

Interests

Seeing the world and meeting those that make it up,reading, making myself and others laugh, sailing, making the most out of life, seeing where the wind carries me, surfing, swiming boating and otherwise being in water, reminding myself that I'm alive and that's about as good as it gets.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen people survive the nastiest of enviornments and home lifes. Got a chance to help them. Was able to help out in the rebuilding of New Oreleans.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a big on psychology. Know a good bit about Gestalt psychology... which involves dream analysis. Really love human interaction and I really love watching and observing people flirt with each other, not in the creepy sense though.
