About Me

I am a world nomad who enjoys meeting new people and exploring new places. My goal is to make it to as many different cities and countries as I can to experience as many different cultures as I can. I enjoy adventuring and exploring, and I tend to try and live in the moment. Weird foods, unique homes, once in a lifetime experiences; that's what I'm in search of!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and to experience what a place is really like, not just the touristy side.

Interests

I enjoy exploring the environments around me, and looking for adventures everywhere I go. I don't want to go to a place and leave knowing that I missed out.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy pretty much anything when it comes to movies and music, but I am always looking for something new. As for books, I am always looking for good recommendations. Also, anything Anthony Bourdain is always a Yes in my book!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've ridden the London Eye, I've swam in Lake Michigan, climbed to the top of Parc Guell, licked the Eiffel Tower, drank Guinness in Ireland, looked over the edge of the Cliffs of Moher, walked along canals in Venice and high end shops in Milan. I've looked out over the city of Florence, and wandered through the woods in Wales. Driven across the USA, climbed volcanoes in Costa Rica, and almost frozen to death in an Icelandic blizzard. I've jumped into freezing water, hiked up mountains, and camped in the desert, but I am always looking forward to that next great adventure.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe that we all have something to give. A talent or passion that we can share with others, for me that would be storytelling, and I have quite a few under my belt already.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A great story, a meal, or even some advice for traveling the world on a budget.
