ABOUT ME

Well I am currently taking time off from school to travel and work on my photography through mexico and most, if not all of central america. Im used to living in san francisco and having the time of my life... enjoying the outdoors, my friends and the many different niches san fran has to offer. Right now however, I am out of the country for an undefined period of time.

PHILOSOPHY

A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving -Lao Tzu
Ive definetley stuck by this one, just following my nose on the road
***Getting lost has been something Ive enjoyed and a great revelation on learning how to explore.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My fiancee (find her as safosonya) and I had our couch up for a month before we left for our travels. We met people from seattle, who stayed with us a couple of times. then the most recent girl was a romanian girl, who offered us a view into a completely different culture. Everybody has been more than inspirational to our travels and it has made many of our friends that we intoduced them to, be intersested in the couchsurfing project.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My girlfriend and I have surfed many places in Mexico, and Guatemala, sometimes just meeting for coffee or drinks, hosted a little bit, and cant wait to return home from our trip to share even more hospitality that we have learned from cultures in our travels. I have made friends from accross the world and hope to find more!!!

Interests

i really like change, and maybe thats why i like traveling a bunch. I love to meet new people, and generally, i think I just get bored alot, so i really like NEW experiences, peoples, or things. I dont mind getting lost.
