PHILOSOPHY

"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun." -- Christopher McCandless, AKA Alexander Supertramp

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

May be able to provide a couch if I'm around/available. Or just help you out if you're in the area.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None thus far internationally, but that will change soon. But have crashed many couches in Oregon.

Interests

I love meeting new people and just having a good laugh.

  • education
  • traveling
  • outdoor activities
  • teaching

Music, Movies, and Books

Any movie (Into the wild is a good one). Music - depends on my mood. Books - David Sedaris is a hilarious author (Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day...) but I enjoy any type of book really.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Right now at the top of my list would be TaoPhilippines.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well my degree is in Health Promotion & Education, so I'm all about living a healthy life; mind/body/spirit. I can help you out if you have any questions related to that. I also have done some world traveling to a variety of areas so if you have any travel questions I can also try and help you out.
