About Me

CURRENT MISSION

LIVE; or die tryin'!

ABOUT ME

i love finding NEW things and places. it makes me feel funny that the world is so hopelessly dependent on inventions of the last couple of decades. I love being outside, feeling free and conquering things that scare me and/or should otherwise seem impossible.

I met my fellow-American wife within a week of arriving in Korea in early 2010. She is amazing! :)

PHILOSOPHY

meteorologists guess; the media hypes; politicians lie... trust your experience!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have enjoyed many unique and memorable experiences while surfing in several places in Asia and Europe. Additionally, we had the pleasure of hosting a variety of travels during our time in Daejeon, South Korea and look forward to opening our home in Atlanta, GA after our current travels conclude!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I tagged along with a friend who was going to Busan, South Korea one time in 2010 and became part of her brilliant couchsurfing experience. I made multiple life-long friends in only my first try and so have been an avid believer (and user) of this site and community ever since then.
