ABOUT ME
Finally, I have left the nest. I have rolled up my sleeves and ventured out into the world to carve a name for myself upon this earth. It’s about time.
I think one of the greatest tragedies in life is not to experience what the world has to offer. In the last few years I was fortunate enough to travel to Japan twice. My time there is one of the greatest of my life. Not only because of my nerdy otaku nature, but also that I got to experience such a different culture and way of life. It was then that I decided that I wanted to experience the world, not only as a consumer, but also as a producer. I want to give something back to these fantastic places I experience. Being only a simple journalism major, how can I do this? Ah yes, another English teacher abroad. After a long and strenuous road, I have found myself in South Korea. Come and join me in my journey.
PHILOSOPHY
There is a reason I have been put on this earth. I haven’t found it yet, and maybe I never will, but what the hell, lets see what’s out there.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Mi casa su casa. I like knowing I’m not alone on this side of the word. I want to gave others that same feeling. I am here for anyone that needs a hand, or just an ear.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have been “that guy on the couch” before, though it still blows my mind that there is a community like this. It makes so much scene.
Interests
