About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world before starting "real career"

ABOUT ME

Im 22. I live for the moment not for the next moment. I love sharing my place. I am honored to invite guests into my house. Meals are great served fresh and i love to cook for anyone who enters my house. If your into a special cuisine that i cant make trust me i know places to get it.
I play sports because i love athletics. I am just average at most sports except bowling is a favorite of mine when i was young. Volleyball is a sport i try to play often to get better. I have adequate skills for tennis and racquetball.
I enjoy going out on the town and staying at home.
I enjoy movies but i hardly "make" time for them.
I basically love entertaining my guests.
I am a christian; im not overly religious but my faith is a part of me. God is MY god.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well
preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting
"....holy shit... what a ride!"

go where the average person doesn't travel
sing as if no one is listening
dance as if no one is watching

dr suess said the mountain is movable.... MOVE IT!

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. --Dr. Seuss

Life is what happens when ur making other plans.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am looking to regularly share my couch with anyone. I am willing to get you from the airport and bring you to my place if need be. Serve you a welcoming food from the area or the American style casual burger and fries if that's your flavor. I am an assistant to traveling as i hope to be helped generously when i start my world travels may 2010.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hope to make this part of my life. I want to welcome and experience culture by traveling to it and allowing it to travel to me. Being part of that experience is something hope you would like to share.

Music, Movies, and Books

i don't enjoy deep rooted horror films otherwise i would watch anything once. i will try anything once and i will keep an open mind.
Music.., If you are not living with me i can handle any type of music for that length of time. Its culture once again you come from somewhere else and i wanna know why you are who you are ... i wonder what am i missing!
just being your self allows me to take that information in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sky diving is a good time.

Slept on a froze-over lake in northern Minnesota. On the ice sheet.

Been ice fishing regularly during winter time

took a 6600 miles road trip in two weeks catching western half of USA

Teach, Learn, Share

Engineering-Civil knowledge. Why things are built the way they are.

I have high math skills but many people know far more than me

I know the food in the area.

I will participate in anything once.
