Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Prepping for beyond.
ABOUT ME
I hail from a very small town on an island in Washington state, which I know has drastically influenced my perception of the World. I think the years of Isolation have given me a longing to experience that which is outside of the box. I am very open minded.
PHILOSOPHY
My philosophy is based around the circumstances of my being. That is - my family, my home, my fellow men, everything i guess. I have a hard time defining myself as anything, because if I were to do that - to label my beliefs, it would only close me off from the beliefs of others. I am constantly building my philosophy, picking up pieces from here and afar, whether that be religious teachings, the personal anecdotes of friends (as well as foes), or even some muddy comic strip I pick up of the street. I aim for progress.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have helped hosts guide couchsurfers through Seattle, befriending them along the way. I have yet to host my very own surfer, but have shared excited sentiment with fellow couch-surfers anyways.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
none, although I grew up in a small dingy house and during the winter my whole family would sleep in our living room couches by the fireplace to keep warm. I once lived in a house for 6 months and can probably count the number of times i slept in my bed on one hand.
Interests
History, Philosophy, Skateboarding, foreign Languages (notably German and French), waking up early during fall camping trips in the mountains, cheap pizza, humans who value honesty and trust.
