Hello! My name is George, and I'm a graduated Journalist and apprentice Adventurer. Like many kids my age, I have a growing desire to roam wild for a spell, and the feeling has nearly reached its boiling point. I grew up on good guest manners and an appreciation for a spirited time. I've accomplished some lite service work in Peru and Nicaragua, and have traveled extensively around the US of A.

Want to talk current events? I'm your man. Want to be left alone and just have your home left in good condition? I'll be sure to make the bed/couch in the morning.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I joined Couchsurfing to make wonderful friends in new lands, and gain some perspective on life outside the US, beyond the tourist traps. I want to break bread and sip brew with locals, and share stories for a short, but memorable time.

I'm on Couchsurfing as a consumer, currently, but when the time comes that I have a settled homestead I'll be more than welcoming toward all wayfaring guests. Currently, I'm planning to travel in New Zealand, Australia, and Thailand, but the itinerary is loose to accommodate spontaneity.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I have a varied taste in music, ranging from hip hop to classic rock, singer-songwriters to electronic, country to classical. Anything that creates or complements the mood.

I've been reading a lot of Hunter S. Thompson, but have enjoyed the works of Hemingway, Jon Krakauer, Ayn Rand, Jared Diamond, Tolkein and George R. R. Martin. Favorite movie? Might be The Big Short.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I met former NBA player Shaquille O'Neal at the Santa Monica, CA beach.

I've gotten my writing published, and I've coordinated multiple social action events at the University of Idaho. One was a debate between our state legislature candidates, had nearly 100 people show up. Very stoked on that.
