ABOUT ME

Laid back guy looking to meet new people and maybe a place to stay when traveling

PHILOSOPHY

The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

It is one of the most beautiful compensations of life, that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.

Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a better place...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson (I'm a big fan...)
