CURRENT MISSION

Be kind, enhance my perception of the natural world, and to be open-minded.

ABOUT ME

I usually try to avoid introspective nightmares. I am in the process of simplifying my life. I am Enjoying the wilderness, remaining active in its advocacy and experiencing its hostility. Over the past year I have began a masters program in school, which I am struggling with- most of the time business seems as crooked as a dogs hind leg. However, I have had the opportunity to meet interesting people from all over the world. These types of experiences keep my mind open and excited about the future.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life sort of by default I guess. Camus has a really good book about personal philosophies called "the stranger."

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I am home I will pretty much always have a place for someone to crash. Also, I am excited at the opportunity to help others. Meeting people from foreign places and learning from them-offering people what I have.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed couches for the last 7 years of my life. Just got hooked up with couchSurfing- but am looking forward to the experiences it has to offer.
