CURRENT MISSION

To see the world one adventure at a time and leave a positive impression on everyone i meet along the way

ABOUT ME-
hi, i am 29 years old and i love to travel and see the world. i am in the US military and i am in law enforcement. when i discovered couch surfing i never thought it would be such an awesome tool for travel and connecting with people all over the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

BREAK OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE-
Most travel guides pride themselves on authenticity: If you want to do as the locals do, then you have to go to eat at this place, and shop at this store. Yet nothing’s really more authentic than an actual native couch surfer host taking you around town to all of his/her favorite places, telling you things about the city that only someone from that city would know. Whereas most people only get to dip a toe into another culture, Couchsurfing allows you to dive in headfirst. You may not walk away knowing all the details of that locations history and society, but you’ll come a way with a sense of what it’s like to walk around in the shoes of a local, even if just for a few days.

UNDERSTAND THE TRUE MEANING OF GENEROSITY-
When I first began Couchsurfing, I thought that I would be offered a couch, and that’s it (and letting someone sleep inside your home for free is already a pretty generous offer). However, every time I’ve Couchsurfed, my hosts have given me breakfast, and on many occasions I’ve walked through the door to a home-cooked meal. Couchsurfing hosts are by and large people who share because they love sharing, and ask for nothing in return. All of these people had never before laid eyes on me, and were still willing to help me out in ways that normally only the closest of friends would.

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC-
I enjoy all types of music, there is a genre of music for every situation and adventure. if i have never heard a type of music before i wouldn't mind giving it a try.

MOVIES-
as much as i love the outdoors, from time to time i could just sit around and watch movies non stop. mainly into action and comedy but there are good movies for every type of preference.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The Couchsurfing experience is most often about cultural exchange. While there are a lot of hosts who are okay with merely providing a place for a traveler to sleep, most want to get to know you, to learn about who you are and where you come from. This goes both ways, i want to be able to make friendships that will continue on after the whole CS experience.
