Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Traveling Europe before its too late
ABOUT ME
I am a 25 year old guy, born and raised in Seattle, WA. I have also lived in Olympia, WA, outside of Boston, MA and briefly in Los Angeles, CA. I have always had a passion for traveling, but because of school and work, I have not had the opportunity to pursue that passion in the past. I am now travelling Europe for a few months, and hopefully this will be the first of many great trips!
PHILOSOPHY
You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take.
-Wayne Gretzky
In the past, I have not realized how much of the world there is to see and experience. It is easy to lose that perspective when you are too busy with life. I realize that now is the time for me to take new chances and try new things, before I no longer have the option.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Can't host now because I'm traveling, but once I have the option I would be very interested in hosting. I've made a donation too.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
None yet. But I look forward to meeting many fun and interesting people while I am here in Europe. I also look forward to hosting people that choose to come and visit my beautiful hometown!
Interests
Music (rap, rock, r&b, blues, jazz), hiking, fishing, sports (go Mariners/Seahawks), meeting new people, traveling, reading books, newspapers (I love newspapers), spending time with friends and family.

Chinatown, The Lives of Others, Godfather (I & II), Un Prophet, Pulp Fiction, Goodfellas, Spirited Away (any Miyazaki movie actually), Airplane! and a million other movies.
Right now I am reading The Song of Ice and Fire series by George R.R. Martin.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Unfortunately, nothing comes to mind yet, so I guess I will have to keep traveling until I know what to put here!
Teach, Learn, Share
I have some knowledge from university regarding economics and law, but some would say that's boring. I am a good resource for people who are interested in travelling the United States, though, because I have a very good knowledge of the different places, regions, and cultures found within our country, and where to visit and what to see.
