About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Not to take myself or anything else too seriously. Correction: Start taking school and writing more seriously.

ABOUT ME

So I'm 26 years old living in Elkins Park, spending most of my time on school work but pursuing other, sometimes contrasting interests whenever I can. Wanderlust is obviously an affliction from which many couch surfers suffer, pleasantly of course. Most of all I enjoy learning and satisfying curiosity in any ways that I can. I'm re-defining what it means to be a team player.

PHILOSOPHY

Defining social justice and morality as real tangible things as often as I can with input from varying perspectives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I shall openly accept strangers into my own home, make them my friends and feed them my food. Then I will undoubtedly get lost in their home towns and ask them numerous times for directions which I will use to get even more lost.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nothing but positive, so much so that I find an alien invasion more likely than having a negative experience. I've only surfed and hosted a handful of times, therefore I have a lot of catching up to do.

Interests

Music rules the world. Gaining interests constantly but..Guitar, anime, travel, exercise, language, art, gaming, reading, learning, eating, joking.

Music, Movies, and Books

Nightmare Before Christmas, Creepy movies, anything original, or hilarious, all genres. Not enough room here to list the music but mostly alternative, but every other type of tune may be cycling through the ipod as we speak. Vampire Junction; yes the book is awesome. Anything Kurt Vonnegut.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Deployed to Iraq as a medic and got to mingle with many of the people there, teaching first aid classes in clinics.

Slept under banana leaves in the Amazon during a thunder storm. Good times.

Teach, Learn, Share

A fresh take on Philadelphia with outtakes from many different experiences and mishaps.
