Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'm going to stop holding myself back, do everything I've always want to do, and see all the places I've never taken time to see!
ABOUT ME
I've been wasting most of my good years toiling away at jobs I don't like, working for people I don't agree with. I decided to leaving it all behind and start over somewhere new, somewhere I can be learn to be proud of who I am and what I do. Where that places is, I'm not quite sure. I may never find it but if so at least I'll get to spend my life traveling in search of it.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe in Karma, what goes around comes around, whether that a good or bad thing is up to each of us individually. I just try to do as much good as I can and tell anyone I help to pay it forward.
I've also felt a strong affinity for Zen Philosophy but i haven't taken enough time to learn as much as I'd like.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm currently just a wayward traveler who's trying to learn as much about the world as I can. I hope to help as many people as possible on my adventures, in anyway I can and learn about new people, cultures, places, and myself in the process.
I always leave a state/city/home in a better condition then when I arrived, whether that's picking up someone else's litter, cleaning a room or two, or just being a positive and kinda as I can.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm still a rookie, but I've taken time to learn about the community and meet some travelers. Everything I've learned so far has been great and I'm looking forward to experiencing it myself.
Interests
Most importantly is people, I love meeting people with different view on the world then me and trying to relate to them. Everyone is entitled to their own views and everyone should appreciate each-other's
I'm into the more natural way of living. I love organic and unprocessed food. I also try to stay as healthy and physically fit as possible. I also try to learn as much as possible about the foods we eat and the way we treat our bodies. So far though I've mostly just learn what most of us are doing wrong. I'm very against our "modern" food industry and the S.A.D. (Standard American Diet). I think if we all treated ourselves a bit better we would all not only be happier but we could also live up to our potential, whatever that may be.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Sell everything I don't need, buy an old explorer and a trailer, pack up the rest of my worldly possessions and leave the monotony behind. All in search of something other than what life has felt the need to give me. I guess you could say I waited 23 years for my destiny before realizing I needed to go and search for it.
Teach, Learn, Share
My current goal is to learn, I'm an amateur on many different topics and an expert on very few (relevant ones). I'm hoping to learn as much as I can from the people I meet and hopefully, eventually, teach others some of what I learned.
