CURRENT MISSION

Meet people and experience other cultures

ABOUT ME

Raised in the mid-west I generally lived in a suburban bubble till college. At college I discovered my love of traveling and learning about new cultures, and as such travel every chance I get.

PHILOSOPHY

"Handle every stressful situation like a dog.
If you can't eat it or play with it,
Just pee on it and walk away."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently my house is amidst a remodeling, so I don't have any beds available. But I'll love to show any one around my town or meet up for coffee.

Only couchsurfed once in 2010 and it was a great experience meeting new people. Sadly, work has keep me busy so I can't been able to couchsurf that much
