About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to travel the world and absorb the different cultures around me..

ABOUT ME

I have spent more of the last two years in Central America than I have in NOrth America and am not ready to settle down... Not ready to do the 9 to 5 job yet or ever for that matter. I would say one word to describe me would have to be SPONTANEOUS!!! i am the type of get up and go person. whether you wanted to volunteer at a ophanage in Cambodia, sail to the caribean or hitch across the Sahara i would be the first person to jump up and say when do we go...

PHILOSOPHY

if you want to do something, do it to its fullest, take a risk and everything will work out in the end!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

trying to head up to the collective tommorrow and volunteer, we shall see...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

umm my freinds say i am a professional vagabond.. yip, well there have been many crazy experience.. lived out of a car for 5 months in new zealand, either camping or meeting generous sheep farmers willing to take us in and serve us a "feed" at two in the morn. ummm my last two months at college i surfed at a friends house next to their fireplace, it was toasty warm..

Interests

where to start.. i love to experience nature whether it be hiking, camping or exploring the small things off the beaten track. i am currently trying to find a place i want to live for an extended period of time that has amazing DIVING, any suggestions please write me. I have a passion for photography and take a camera with me everywhere I travel. I like meeting new people who can open my eyes to new experiences and outlooks on life. umm playing pool in bars, having conversations until the wee hours of the morning, laughing a lot, exotic street food, pinot noir, falling asleep to the sound of rain on a tin roof, forest activism, EarthFirst, hotsprings, the jennybop, watermelon juice, going on tour, clown fish, playing on the bottom of the ocean 60ft below the surface....
