I love the outdoors, almost any sport/activity, nature, meeting people, and laughing. I love good food and conversation. Always looking for the local experience.

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't spend your precious time asking 'Why isn't the world a better place?' It will only be time wasted. The question to ask is 'How can I make it better?' To that question, there is an answer."
-Leo Buscaglia

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My door is always open, and when I am home I have a couch to stay on. When I am traveling, I hope to meet great people who I can learn from and experience a taste of their culture and community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had some incredible experiences surfing in the Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Hope to expand that to many other locations.

Interests

I love the outdoors - biking, running, hiking, camping, soccer, Frisbee, slack lining, rock climbing, and much more. I love nature, especially mountains and trees. I love reading and learning new things. I love visiting new places and getting the "local" experience. And I love meeting new people.
