CURRENT MISSION

Broaden my overall perspective on the world through travel, experiential discovery, and continuous self-growth.

ABOUT ME

After completing my seperate degrees and graduating from college, I knew that there was much more to learn in life that couldn't be taught in the small confines of a classroom. With this in mind, I decided to take it upon myself to make as much of this period in my life as I could to travel all around and become exposed to as many different new settings and experiences as possible to grow and better myself to the best of my ability.

PHILOSOPHY

"Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today"

"Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact"

"The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page"

"One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things"

"The journey not the arrival matters"

"A sense of humor is the ability to understand a joke - and that joke is oneself"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I see the ability to travel as more of a privilege that should be respected as such. Because of this, I try to give back what I can wherever my travels take me whether it be with knowledge and perspective, experience, entertainment, or what little funds I have. You can't expect to get much out of life if you don't intend on putting the right amount in first.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've recently had the incredible opportunity to road trip with some friends and travel cross-country covering the majority of America's states. Similarily to how couchsurfing is operated, I was able to successfully accomplish it using only friends, family, and the network of contacts I've made through prior jobs and experiences along the way. Not only did it help me to keep to my small budget, but added significantly to the overall fulfillment of the journey through the ability to reconnect as well as meet many new incredible sincere and caring individuals.

Interests

Beyond my obvious passions for travel and exploration, I have further interests in many facets of the entertainment industry as well. I grew up always playing and watching various sports of all kinds and continue to remain a loyal fan to what I consider to be "my teams." Music is also a huge part of my life with it being so integrated into my entire family including my two siblings and their respected musical careers. Lastly, comedy and entertainment has to be mentioned since I love nothing more than seeing people laughing and enjoying life.
