I am an easy-going, down-to-earth, outdoorsy, adventurous soul that hasn't stayed in one place for more than 6 months since I first discovered how amazing its is to travel the world more than 12 years ago. I love photography, music, nature, extreme sports, and discovering new cultures.

Currently looking for a place to call home in one of my favorite countries- Colombia! With time I want to start a tourist project here and live between South America, my native St. Louis, Missouri, USA and wherever else in the world Im trying to check things of the bucket list!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love meeting interesting, cool people from all walks of life. For me, Couchsurfing is an awesome way of getting out of ones daily routine and connecting with people from all over the world and share our stories and selves.

Besides that I've attended several Spanish-English language exchanges and look forward to attending more in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As mentioned, I like attending language exchanges and other events that tickle my fancy. Besides that I've met up people here and there, but have never actually stayed with anyone or had a guest as my only main residence is my car and tent

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music. I will listen to just about anything; lots of 60s rock and roll, Grateful Dead, Hendrix Zeppelin, blues... Too much to name, anything with SOUL... I have been playing guitar 9 or 10 years as well. I play a lot of lead in the styles of blues, psychedelic, rock and roll,which I grew up on. Nowadays I do whatever I can though. Folk, funk, blues, jazzy (not trained in music theory though), world.. I dunno anything really...

I read a lot when I have the time, especially when I am traveling. I love Kurt Vonnegut, Feodor Dosteoevsky to name a few. Philosophy, literature, fiction, black-humor, satire, history. adventure kinda stuff. Anything that makes me ponder and make me want to go out and see the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my favorite memories was a 25 day self-supported rafting trip down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon from start to finish.
