About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Before I get old and die, I want to backpack everywhere!

ABOUT ME

I work hard, and I play hard. I am professional and responsible, but a big kid at heart. I love new experiences in different cultures, and I love meeting new people. I am very respectful of other people. I do not do drugs, but I do drink. I want to see history, outdoors and local night life. There is so much to see and do in this world!

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will host, but I don't think my city is all that interesting. I am looking forward to being the best guest someone has ever had!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I will update this after my next trip! ;)

Interests

I am very athletic. I run, lift weights, play soccer, etc. I will try just about any sport once. I love anything to do with the outdoors. Camping, boating, hiking, and fishing are some of my favorite things to do. I have a great group of friends and family that I love spending time with.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My backpacking trip through Peru and Bolivia was incredible. I traveled primarily by bus. I slept in people's homes and hostels. I went to a CRAZY professional soccer game. I hiked all over Machu Picchu and other ruins. Lake Titicaca was beautiful. Crossing the border in Bolivia was insane! I partied with locals at different bars. In one dangerous area, police threw me into a cab to keep me from getting kidnapped. I ate at non touristy restaurants and markets. I ate everything... alpaca, llama, and even a Peruvian guinea pig! FYI it is served with everything but the fur! It was truly the most amazing and eye opening experience of my life. I can't wait to do more trips like this!
