CURRENT MISSION Live, learn, and appreciate the everyday things. I quit my job at the start of March 2015, and am traveling the world! Not sure how long I'll be on the road - I'm thinking a year to start. As I travel, I'm keeping a travel blog and working on a travel-related website. You can check it out here: http://www.splashee.com/#/blog .

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I want to understand different people/places/culture better, and I think staying with locals is a better way to do that than staying in hostels.
