CURRENT MISSION

To (safely & preparedly) break away into the wilderness and spend as long as I can there

ABOUT ME

Minimalist, idealist, adventurer, ascetic, worker

PHILOSOPHY

First, integrity is key to anything good in life. Second, I have an unverified yet constant suspicion that the best in life is always just beyond reach, but it's worth reaching for.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My claim to couchsurfing fame: I let a stray 24-year-old man stay with me for 2 months in a cheap one-bedroom apartment during my sophomore year of college. He had bicycled 400 miles to Tallahassee from South Florida. I was impressed enough so I took him in. He would tune up my bicycle while I was away attending class :)

Interests

Traveling, solitude in wilderness, and learning what I can when I whimsically scour the internet

• traveling
• outdoor activities
• adventure races
• business

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything gritty, heartfelt, adventurous, or exciting.

Teach, Learn, Share

Although I haven't started one myself because my heart isn't there yet, I have a pretty confident understanding of how to start a business, as well as what makes or breaks a business. I love to engage others in talk of business pursuits.

Because I'm mostly a self-taught outdoor adventurer, I'm definitely interested in hearing others' encouraging advice for staying safe out there as well as picking the right trail routes.
