About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I've been out of the couchsurfing world for a while but plan on traveling a lot over the next year around the country and maybe internationally. Planning on doing a RV (pull camper) road trip around the western part of the US and hoping to find some surfers out there that have space for me to park my camper while I visit.

ABOUT ME

I'm 37 and traveling is my passion. My interests include traveling, skydiving, snowboarding, hiking, camping, and fishing... I was stationed in Germany for 3 years so I got to see a lot of Europe (it rocks!). I'm a pretty easy going guy and have a good sense of humor. I like to laugh and make others laugh. I'm kinda a dork but silly/funny dork, not the nerdy sci-fi convention dork (maybe a little). Basically I don't care what others think, i'll be silly if i want to damn it!

PHILOSOPHY

Live life, You only have one shot at it. Think about the world outside of your job and responsibilities. There is so much out there that you don't know about and should go find it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I began to work remotely for my job in mid March. With the summer coming, I plan on taking advantage of that to live my dream and work remote and travel at the same time. I have a 20 ft camper that I will be pulling and plan on staying a week or two in the different states I'll be visiting. Looking to see who out there has space for me to park my camper (i don't need to be inside your place).

If I'm home, I have a spare bedroom for those seeking a place to stay

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First couch surfed in Atlanta and met a really awesome romanian haha. Dana rocks! Did a cross country trip a while back and surfed some couches.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen a UFO when I was in mexico about 5 years ago and that was pretty crazy.

and as far as doing something amazing... well the next day after I saw that UFO in mexico I was on a speed boat in the ocean and another speed boat caught a wave and landed on top of mine. I was stuck underneath the boat for about a minute and a half unconscious. The fact that I survived is amazing. Good job cancun medical services!!
