ABOUT ME

At the end of 2005 I came back from a 9 month trip to Europe(7 months) and Central America(2 months). It was an amazing experience and now I'd love to meet other travellers. I have many friends in Europe now that made my experience so great and I'd love to help out travellers in the US to have similar experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Live your life how you want no matter what anybody else thinks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed a few times with the site and also crashed at friends' places in several places in Europe. The best experiences I've had while travelling were always when I met new people and experienced their cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacking/Hiking in Alaska. Beautiful scenery and cool animals(bears, moose). I was mostly in the Anchorage area, but also hiked to Harding Icefield on the Kenai Peninsula, which was the highlight of the trip.
Backpacking for 9 months through Europe and Central America was more than amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Just showing an interest in another country's culture and language goes a long way with making friends there.
