ABOUT ME

I'm finally home from my first grand tour. I left home in Febuary, 2011 to travel all around Europe. After a few months of hitching and couchsurfing in Western Europe I found myself on a plane to Turkey. From there I spent the next three months in the Middle East. After a brief week back home I realized that I wasn't ready to call it quits yet, so I grabbed a plane to South America in August, 2011 and stayed until the end of October. It was a great time.I'm a friendly, laid back, easy going type of guy. I've grown accustomed to island life, where things slow down and there's no need to stress.When I'm at home, I like to spend as much time as I can outside, and my hobbies reflect that. Nearly every summer weekend will find me driving to some obscure place up-island to go rock climbing, and in the past I've spent an entire month camping. I am not opposed to vegging out and playing video games on a dreary day though; it's how I spend my winter when I'm not snowboarding.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed throughout Western Europe and met some amazing people. Israel was the same. I hope that I can get a chance to do some hosting sometime in the future.
