About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel as much as this life will allow, and meet incredible people along the way

ABOUT ME

I believe the purpose if life is to be happy, to learn, to explore and to share. Things that make me happy: hiking, laughing, drinks with friends, making new friends, getting a killer deal on outdoor gear(!), watching a great movie, traveling & learning.

I live to explore new things, like going to new places, meeting people, picking up a new hobby or building on an old one, trying new recipes/food, and constantly on the search for new music/artists. When I travel, I like to stay off the beaten path and try to learn as much about the culture of the place that I am visiting.

I am open-minded, often called a "free-spirit," and extremely laid back.

PHILOSOPHY

If I live the life I'm given, I won't be scared to die

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm not sure how I can help, except being as open as I can to embrace those who I meet along the way. I love networking with like-minded people, and trying new things.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted people before, and I have organized a local event to network with CSers, but I have not used this site to surf (YET)!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Much of the things I have done can be considered to be amazing by some and mundane by others. Both not important to me. I find "amazing" in anything that will offer itself to me. In truth. In life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have grown a business from nothing except the love of a sport - more specifically, the love of the community of a sport.
I dabble in many, many things - consider myself to be good at many things, great in few.
I am a student of life. If there is something to be learned, I am your student
