ABOUT ME

Hello all! I am officially changing my residence from Chicago to Bloomington, Indiana as I am moving there for graduate school. If any of you guys are interested in seeing a part of the US no tourists ever go to, definitely drop me a line while I'm there ;-) Peace

PHILOSOPHY

I used to pour over philosophy trying to figure out the meaning for life. I think it's more important for me to just try to let beautiful things happen before I die.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mostly as a host but I have surfed as well!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have never had a bad experience with couchsurfing. The folks I've stayed with and vice-versa have always been fantastic people: fun, respectful and easy-going.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

A few special memories stick out...however, nothing comes close to just people that I have met while travelling! a few others would be: lazing around the nude beach at Tayrona National Park in Colombia, hiking to the top of Aspen Mountain to see the sunrise over the valley; Lago de Ometepe in Nicaragua; Canterbury Cathedral in England; seeing the ruins at Palenque in Mexico; exploring caves in Guatemala; seeing the Italian Alps by train; seeing the countryside of Spain by bus...so many others
