About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission conqur adventures, first in the USA and then the World!

ABOUT ME

Hey there,

The names Gordo, I'm 21 years old and I hail from the fair lands of Franklin Massachusetts. I love the outdoors, meeting new people and I'm always up for going on adventures. I love learning and trying new things.

I spent a couple of years in community college and then the wanderlust struck, I had to go out into the world. So in order to see the world, learn new things and help people out at the same time, I joined AmeriCorps NCCC, a national service organization for people around my age. It was here that I met some amazing people from all over the United States.

I was inspired! I wanted to meet awesome people from throughout the US. Then I discovered couchsurfing, and a great relationship was formed!

PHILOSOPHY

I love to constantly push myself,learn new things, try new things and have new experiences. I love to meet people, build and maintain those friendships and relationships.

Live life to the fullest!
