About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To open a bottle of beer with my mind

ABOUT ME

My name is Mike, but you have to call me Dragon. (The movie "Stepbrothers" anyone?...) ' )

I recently completed a 10 month journey around the world. I'm now ready, waiting, and willing to host couchsurfers!

I found I'm not satisfied with helping companies make money or just making money for myself. I want to meet people all over the world to learn, share, party, speak philosophy, play music, and to develop genuine friendships. I know that I have a calling to helping those in need, to inspire, to educate the youth, to create art, and to assist in the preservation of our natural environment.

To all you couchsurfers - wherever I live, you are always welcome to have at least a floor to crash on!

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to love, laugh, make some bad decisions to laugh some more, and to leave this place better than you found it, except for your reputation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I send desperate last minute requests to sleep on people´s floors.

I joined CS to meet and support like minded individuals - those that are open mined to new cultures, music, food, great hikes, and good jokes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been meeting amazing friends on CS!
