CURRENT MISSION

Explore EVERYTHING

ABOUT ME

So the first thing about me is that I'm a student. So far, school has been my life and love. Learning is something I enjoy and look forward to- especially learning about new people and places.

Aside from that I try to be as dynamic as possible. Love being active, outdoors, exploring cities. A lot of my friends are artists, but a lot of them are also totally random people that have come into my life. I'm very thankful for that.

Growing up I moved around. A LOT. Idaho, Nevada, Wisconsin, New York, Oklahoma, Boston. It's helped me be more open-minded and also given me a great many experiences. One side effect is that I LOVE traveling. There's nothing more exciting than picking things up and just GOING. New places are exhilarating and I want to experience as many as I can.

This summer I'm traveling around the US and hopefully next summer I can get out to Europe. We'll see how everything goes. Hope to hear from you.

PHILOSOPHY

Always look forward, but never forget

There is always something around the bend, but don't forget where you came from :)

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

surfing, hosting, whatever I can do to meet interesting people

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couch surfed locally a bit and have always enjoyed the time spent with friends and new acquaintances. I'm still working on it! :)

Interesses

Life, love, staying active, changing the world- every day

I've been to quite a few different schools and really like talking about american education system(i know that's a little nerdy) It would be really awesome to meet some people who have an outsider's perspective on that.

Very much a free spirit. Open to new experiences and whatever is happening in your/my head at the moment. Being a veterinarian is a dream of mine. Really love animals.

My main hobbies are reading, bicycling, running, appreciating art, watching TV (currently: Weeds and Trublood) Very laid back kind of guy, hoping for new experiences and people.

I love hearing about what people are passionate about, whether it's underwater basket weaving (have actually done this, very fun) or coupon cutting (do this also) As long as it's in your heart, it's fun to talk about.
