About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore Central and South America through the lens of Sustainable Design and Consciousness Building

ABOUT ME

I'm a writer obsessed with life and experience.

Hi! I'm Frank's friend Hope and he asked me to write this section for him.

I have had the wonderful honor of knowing Frank for many years now, and if I had to describe how amazing of a person he is I would have a difficult time limiting my thoughts to words, for I am not as gifted as he is in self expression through the beauty of written form. But I would try by saying that he is a pure joy to be around, he is a fun, open minded, creative, passionate individual that always strives for harmony and balance as his libra nature suggests. I have had the great pleasure to spend a few weeks in his immediate company and I will say he is very adaptable, humble, and with each day that passes I have watched him reach to be a better version of who he was the previous day. I know anyone would be nothing less that honored to share time in his company.

PHILOSOPHY

Do things for others with no expectation of reciprocation but because you believe it is right.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to explore. When surfing my main goal is to get to know the tierra of a place, not just the city, but the true country side that the civilization sprang from.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet but I'm currently traveling and hope to build some credibility so I can host different people when I land back home too.

Interests

Traveling, hiking, camping, rock climbing, any kind of boarding, snorkeling, reading, writing, photography, audio production, and making videos. I read a lot right now. I'm traveling to help expand my consciousness and understand more about the diverse cultures in the world. Sustainable engineering is of particular interest to me right now because I get to study the way different cultures use their resources to create things without harming the environment.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed Crystal Crag in Mammoth, California, and got to see the entire valley, full of indigo lakes under an azure sky, hanging from my fingers 100 feet up a rock face.

A few summers ago I climbed the Brooklyn Bridge at 3a.m. to see the city sleep from one of its most famous thoroughfares.
