CURRENT MISSION

Live a good life!

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy going fellow who loves staying active and everything that entails (exercising, sports, hiking, cycling, etc.). I'm trying to branch out and make more meaningful connections and friendships. I haven't seen much of the world or the United States and I'd like to change that.

PHILOSOPHY

Still a work in progress. . .

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I'm just trying to use this site to get to know people in the community. I hope to do some surfing and hosting in the future of course.

All the couch surfers I've ran into have seemed really cool.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2008. It was Awesome! I met a lot of friendly people who would probably fit right into the couch surfing community. I hope to hike parts of the Pacific Crest Trail and Continental Divide Trail at some point in the future.
