About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I like to jump out of/off of things.

ABOUT ME

I like to skydive. A lot. As a result, I'm perpetually poor and chasing summer weather. On the ground, I like running, biking and coffee. Mmmmm coffee.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't panic.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I lived in a 9-person co-op in Santa Cruz where we frequently hosted couch surfers. Now, I live in a run-down trailer in the middle of cornfields in Illinois, so I haven't hosted recently. But I have aspirations of converting my trailer into a giant ball pit, and that would be a pretty cool place to hang out.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couch surfing rocks!

Interests

I like food. And coffee. I can juggle fire and machetes, but I'm a little out of practice right now.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming on the reefs near Perth, Australia was amazing. I need to go back.
