About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world, meet people and find out more about myself in the process.

ABOUT ME

I'm a nice guy that's starting a new life of seeking adventure. I'm easy going, well organized and always planning ahead.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe life should be experienced to the fullest. I've learned to not worry about things too much and just enjoy life. The world is too big to stay out in one place. It might sound cliche, but I'm trying to live every day like it's my last.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm brand new to CS but I'm really looking forward to meeting new people as well as helping strangers out.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch surfed two times on my backpacking trip through Europe. Both experiences were amazing! I could not have asked for better hosts. This is an amazing organization.

Interests

Music is my real passion in life. It is my life actually. I also really enjoy bikes and travelling. I enjoy hanging out with friends in casual environments. I enjoy bars, concerts and movies. Hiking and camping are also important to me.
