About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life and travel while I still have some spring in my step.

ABOUT ME

I'm down for most adventures.

PHILOSOPHY

Rules are for Fools and Guidance for Wise Men.

"I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive."
-Joseph Campbell

"The world is a book, and those who do not travel, read only a page"
-Saint Augustine

"A life is not important, except in the impact it has on other lives"
-Jackie Robinson

"When we quit thinking primarily about ourselves and our own self-preservation, we undergo a truly heroic transformation of consciousness."
-Joseph Campbell

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Share a house with a roommate. We've hosted five peeps. Hope to surf myself in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Signed on after talking to a friends who've done it. I really dig travel stories.

Interests

Love watersports and have a pretty bad case of wanderlust.

  • books
  • traveling
  • sailing
  • science

Music, Movies, and Books

Sailing Alone Around the World, Shackleton's South. I like the TV show Breaking Bad but don't really like TV much. Nature, travel, and science documentaries usually have me staring for a while. Me gusta music festivals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A 5 month sail though the Bahamas. At first, I had two buds, then one, then solo...people flew in for a week or so, then solo, again, for too long a time. Now, I like to travel with good company.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm diggin' a lot of science stuff at the moment and can nerd it up with a like-mind.

Countries I’ve Visited

Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Germany, Grenada, Guatemala, Mexico, Netherlands, Puerto Rico, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago, United Kingdom, Virgin Islands, British, Virgin Islands, U.S.
