Shorthand form "About me" is that I'm really just trying to experience everything I can while I can. I love being outside. I enjoy music and movies. I'm a total foodie and the best part of traveling is learning from other travelers.

I'm obsessed with people and places. I think everyone has such an amazing story and every town has an amazing story to tell.
I'm crazy for any sort of culture/subculture that emphasizes people talking to each other, laughing and traveling.

PHILOSOPHY
People are the greatest thing. Place is the second greatest thing and the way the two interact is the third best thing.

It's not the amount of years in your life, it's the amount of life in your years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying at a hotel and hostel is an alternative but having an options to spend time with locals is amazing! Being able to spend time with people who are kind enough to open up the doors to they're home would be an honor.

The main reason why I'm Couchsurfing is to learn about the world view of America through international travelers and learn from different cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Life is too full of good things to narrow it down to one experience

Teach, Learn, Share

I think I can learn about life from anyone, no matter how different we may be. I want to see the world through other peoples' eyes.

Preference will be given to those who have clearly made an effort to read my profile and can offer a personable approach to CS requesting me. CS is all about community and exchange. I really want all parties to benefit from this experience.

I would really like to host people who have made an attempt to fill out their profile. I am not as concerned with references, as I am effort. I get that people are new to CS. Filling out your profile just shows me that you are passionate about the CS community. That being said, I have had an opportunity explore Oahu extensively. There is a lot to offer on the island and I would like to share this knowledge with anyone who is willing to listen or offer to help when I can.

I always leave a reference, no matter what. It's a known fact that references is the one thing that benefits both host and traveler. So I ask to please leave a reference.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a good experience with others in having a loyal companion. I also like to "customize your day events" what I mean by that, if it's a work day and I can't show you around, I ask what you want to do during your stay. depending on how you answer I would give you an entire day's list of events of places to see, eat, visit, try out, or the "must do" while in Hawaii.
