About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To spread the values of communication, cooperation, and friendship to everyone I meet.

ABOUT ME

Well, Peace Corps ended a bit early due to pretty bad compatibility issues between my stomach and Nicaraguan cuisine, but the new plan is to make it big in Brooklyn, New York with my partner in crime Leslie! Hope to get back into the CS community once there, and look forward to hosting again!

I love traveling, meeting new people, and helping out with projects (yeah, that sounds strange, but it's true!). I also love taking pictures, making music, chilling out, cooking and doing dishes. I'm a strange guy, maybe, but I'm super-friendly and I love hearing other peoples' perspectives. What do you think?

PHILOSOPHY

Do what you love, don't take shit, believe in yourself, think outside the box, connect the dots, live every day as if it were your last.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Now that I'm back in the States, I'm all about Surfing, hosting, planning/attending local group events, facilitating surfers in the pursuit of Rocking Out. Lookin forward to getting back into it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies, I've seen way too many. I also love music of all types and sorts. If you have movies or artists/songs that you love, I can probably recommend a movie or artist that you haven't heard before and you'll love it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach anyone who's interested how to start a Co-op. Does your community need something that it doesn't have access to or could be provided more affordably? Start a Co-op!
