MY MISSION:

I’ve been blessed to travel the world doing the impossible and inspiring others to overcome fear and do the impossible in their lives. As a result, I've gotten to meet some VERY interesting people along the way!

CouchSurfing has allowed me to meet some of the most amazing people I have ever known and stay in places I might not have been able to otherwise! Thank you to CS and everyone who's hosted me!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I love meeting adventurers, explorers and world travelers and swapping stories of travel adventures around the world.

I believe passion, faith and gratitude create a life of fulfillment; As a result, I've been blessed to meet amazing people who have inspired me to experience amazing adventures all over the world! .I've hugged alpacas in the Andes, kissed moose in Alaska, giraffes in Africa, camels in Jerusalem, straddled the equator in Ecuador, the Arctic Circle in Sweden, climbed pyramids in Peru and Mexico, glaciers in Iceland, had reindeer in Lapland, yak milk in Nepal, flown parrots in Arizona, falcons in Qatar, eagles in Kazakhstan, ridden sharks in Bahamas and Fiji, done elephant tiger safari in India, lion safari in Africa, survived 7 years on a deserted island, lived with a tribe of Indians in the Amazon, climbed to the top of Mount Kebnekaise, the highest mountain in Lapland, saw Mt. Everest at sunrise, Machu Picchu at sunset, pushed my limits, set world records and done the impossible... I’ve dived a 200’ blue hole in the Bahamas, swallowed swords 20 feet underwater in a tank of sharks for Ripley's Believe It or Not Myrtle Beach, swallowed swords at Stonehenge, pulled a car by sword and made it to the Finals on 🇺🇸 America’s Got Talent, 🇫🇷 France’s Got Talent, 🇮🇹 Italy’s Got Talent, 🇮🇱 Israel’s Got Talent, and Australia's Got Talent, pushed my limits, set world records, and done the impossible... all after being told I'd never amount to anything!
