CURRENT MISSION

To learn and share experiences with someone from every culture of the world

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty active, adventurous, and humorous individual. I'll try anything at least once. I'm a serious hard-worker who knows how to have a good time. I've done some pretty extensive independent travelling/backpacking throughout central and eastern Europe, central America, and Southeast Asia. I've come to realize that I enjoy people from all walks of life- you never know what you can learn as well as a passion for all kinds of ethnic foods. I can get bored fairly easily-always trying to learn and discover the true meaning of life.

PHILOSOPHY

Work hard, play harder

The less money you have while traveling, the more adventure & experiences you'll have to share

It's not about the location of the world you're in or the amount of wealth that you have, it's the people that make it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new to this whole experience and will embrace it by offering a nice comfy pull-out couch. I've hosted a few times but I've never surfed.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survived an electrical storm with monsoon rains on a boat in Turkey; Caught a thresher Shark fishing 30 miles out in the ocean while being seasick; Went scuba diving at night in Honduras; Got electrocuted in the Philippines in the rain for about 20 seconds- thought I was going to die
