CURRENT MISSION

Find a job, and move out of my hometown.

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy going and laid back kind of person, just back from the Peace Corps and spending some time at home. I like spring in the Midwest and black coffee.

PHILOSOPHY

"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view - until you climb into his skin and walk around in it." -- Atticus Finch

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

No space to host and no time off to surf, so just hanging out at the moment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a handful of amazing CSers over the past year, and have nothing but great things to say about CS. What an amazing way to bring people together!
