CURRENT MISSION

Get weird, have fun, end up with a good story

ABOUT ME

I'm currently a student studying architecture at Philadelphia University and studying abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark. I enjoy meeting new people, and throwing myself into unfamiliar situations as often as I can. I'm sarcastic and I believe my friends would say that I am well humored. I'm always the first to make a fool out of myself, or make a joke at my own expense in order to make people laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

Never stop learning, whether it be sports, school, traveling or whatnot. Never stop moving (unless injured by any of the aforementioned activities).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would be more than happy to help out around the house if it is needed during my stay and more than happy to take you out for a couple of drinks.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Never any official couch surfing.

Interests

I have either tried every extreme sport under the sun, or I have it on my wish list. Since I'm from the coast I grew up surfing, but since then have picked up snowboarding, wakeboarding, skimboarding, skateboarding, whitewater kayaking, and most recently rock climbing. In terms of conventional sports, I grew up playing tennis and currently play for my college team. When I'm not at school I am either teaching tennis or teaching sea kayaking as my profession.

Music, Movies, and Books

Any movie ever. Stephen King Novels, and I will listen to anything and dance to anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had one amazing trip to old forge, New York where I participated in the Moose River Whitewater Festival. The trip began by dropping over a 65 foot waterfall which was by far the biggest feature I had ever run. Apart from scarring me silly, it was the most exhilarating experience of my life.

On another trip, Me and my friend ventured off to an island 10 miles off our coast to do some surfing during a large swell. We got there the night before and slept in a van in the pouring rain only to awake to blue skies and perfect waves. we surfed all day without seeing another person and trading waves at a perfectly picturesque break until sunset.

Teach, Learn, Share

When I'm not a professional student, I'm a professional instructor. I love teaching, and the genre is generally irrelevant.
