About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to see the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty easy going and laid back individual. I'm fairly easy to get along with. I enjoy living life to the fullest and experiencing new things. I'll try just about anything once. I have a good sense of humour and I am very open minded. I am eager to learn about different cultures, languages and histories.

PHILOSOPHY

Good people. Good drinks. Good food. Good times. Worrying accomplishes nothing!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been CouchSurfing for a while now and I have met some amazing people! I feel as though people who are willing to participate are generally like-minded individuals with whom I want to become acquainted.

Interests

I enjoy meeting new people and trying new things. I like to chat over drinks or coffee, play sports, enjoy nature and wilderness, go on random adventures, play card & board games and just about anything else.
