About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn as much about couchsurfing and couchsurfers as possible... they seem to be the most interesting and fun people.

ABOUT ME

I like to talk a lot.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live my life doing three simple things:
1. Things that make me happy
2. Things I know to be right
3. When the first two conflict, try to always pick the latter.

It's simple... but not easy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My participation has been limited so far. I really just want to get to know (via hosting so far... not so much traveling) as many new people as I can and generally learn how I can participate more.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Slim to none.

Interests

Pretty much anything active and outdoors except basketball. Live music and finding new places to eat and drink... especially when all three of those are rolled into one place.

  • drinking
  • trivia
  • traveling
  • music
  • live music
  • outdoor activities
  • sailing
  • basketball
  • boxing

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: The Power of One - Bryce Courtenay is the all time favorite. Always looking for more new books though... I read pretty ravenously.

Music: Anything, but I'm really into southern blues and rock right now. Country too.

Movies: I'll watch anything... my standards are low.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The only thing that I could really list here is that I've competed in the longest freshwater sailing race in the world: Chicago to Mackinac Island. I've done it twice now and it's taken 60 and 75 hours respectively. Quite an experience but definitely not one I would recommend to everyone.

Otherwise, I pretty much joined CS so I could add to this box.

Teach, Learn, Share

My mind is cluttered with more "fun facts" (aka trivia) than I know what to do with.
