About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find ways to situate myself in Life and the world around me while learning as much as I can and meeting real people

ABOUT ME

I literally asked some of my best friends what they would say about me. "You're fuckin' down for anything, and you're so laid back."

I would have to agree. I like people to have a good time, and I like to share experiences whether they're life-changing or ordinary.

I want to learn as much as possible in life, which means having as many different experiences as possible. I'm interested in stories of others; thus I, after prodding from a friend and fellow couch-hoster, want to start hosting and surfing while learning about people and places as much as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm responsibly irresponsible, and I refuse to believe the lie that I am satiable. I live day to day with the hope that I'll one day be okay with my existence. Until then I'm making life worthwhile and find content.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Willing to host. I've surfed. It's always a good time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Friends of mine and I went to Pittsburgh for a Girl Talk concert. We stayed in this amazing place called the Pay It Forward House. Google that. The couple running it are amazing. I've made some amazing friends through CS already.

Interests

I'm a lover/consumer of films, music, and books. I also enjoy me some bike riding.
I work in affordable housing and would eventually want to get into film making.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every little Deja Vu moment I've had leaves me a little awestruck, because I feel I'm right where I need to be. Also, I saw two strangers become some of the coolest friends I've ever met overnight while CS'ing in Pittsburgh.

Teach, Learn, Share

One rule I've learned in my short time of couchsurfing was from some nice people my first time CS'ing, and it is, "Don't be a dick."
