About Me

CURRENT MISSION

We do these things not to escape life, but to prevent life from escaping us

ABOUT ME

Wow, looks like I have been a member for almost 6 years now! Hard to believe its been that long but in that time period alone I've been able to visit over 25 countries and have met some amazing people thanks to Couchsurfing.

PHILOSOPHY

The cultures of Europe are what draw me to this wonderful continent and I believe staying with people who actually live there give me the best opportunity to truly experience what life is like across the Atlantic.

If someone is kind enough to invite me into their home I believe it is my responsibility to be as little a burden as possible and to leave as small a footprint as I can. I love to share my culture and experiences with other people and am a great conversationalist.
