CURRENT MISSION

I want to see, do, learn and EXPERIENCE everything that flows my way. And hopefully by opening my mind and the minds of others I will be making our world a better place (and having some fun while doin it)

ABOUT ME

I am a relaxed and fun-loving guy that is on a never ending search for adventure. Good times with friends and family, wandering through nature, playing sports, reading good books and generally just chillin' are the things I like to do. The mantras I live my life by are staying relaxed, happy and positive.

PHILOSOPHY

"life is 10% what happens to you, and 90% how you react to it"-Charles Swindoll

"not all those who wander are lost"-JRR Tolkien

"live, love and laugh"- somebody cool

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am extremely interested in learning about people, places and culture. My personal and academic interests are focused on understanding the amazing variations in people around the world. I want to dive headfirst into the countries I visit and learn as much as possible about the local culture. I basically will leap at any opportunity to do anything and am very rarely judgemental.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

No experience yet, but I have heard great things from buddies and feel that it would be right up my alley. Meeting cool people and having a place to stay...sounds awesome!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

killed a squirming, sticky, inking octopus with my hands underwater

Teach, Learn, Share

even tho I am still young, I believe that I have a wealth of life experience and a million interesting stories to go along with it. My time in the Pacific, passion for academics, teaching experience, and travel adventures give me a storehouse of things to share with others. But beyond the knowledge I have and the experiences I've undertaken, the main thing that I have to offer to others is my positive attitude that will hopefully seep into the environment and bring a good energy to wherever I am.
