About Me

I have been pursuing my dreams my entire life. I strive to accomplish my goals and always set my bar pretty high. I understand at times I may fall short but I always find myself in a higher place than I was before. Currently my venture is to travel the world full-time and learn as much as I can along the way. I want to work on farms, on ships, in restaurants from around the world, climb mountains with a group and speak another language fluently. I love to laugh and smile as much as possible and I know there is always something to be learned from anybody. I grew up skateboarding and still do. I learned to snowboard and taught it for years. I play many different instruments and have been in bands before. I love to camp and learn about nature as much as I can. I have been working since I was 14 and just recently quit a job I had for 8 years to start this world venture. I am not afraid of hard work. I understand that you must work if you want things in this life, even food. I love the idea of paying it forward and have rarely sold a thing in my life. I will always give my time or things to people when I can. If I currently had a place of my own I would definitely put my couch or room on here. Someday I will when I settle down a bit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on here to be able to travel further and see more. I have plenty of resources to help me but the idea of free couches makes it nice to be able to experiences places without spending a lot of money. I will also use hostels or Airbnb when I have to but anytime a couch opens up, I will be there. I know I won't have my own couch to offer for a while but I can help with anything that is needed. I do love to cook :)
