Overview
About Me
As a military medical technician i learned my heart and time will always be dedicated to serving other regardless of my situation, i want to find and relocate to somewhere in the East Coast, but seemed to have fallen in love with southern hospitality. Family hasn't always been blood to me but i rather trust a complete stranger than my own blood as they tend to have bigger understanding hearts. I grew up as a band geek, and my dream of being a DJ was pushed aside due to my stepfathers death in which he told me "Always travel get out there and make connections on your own, because life will blindside you before you know it and you will regret not taking risks". This coming from a man who lost his vision when i left to basic training from diabetes, he was a military veteran also serving in the Army for 4 years and being deployed to vietnam and then the Watts Riots.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I plan on living my dream of making connections with friend through all over the country instead of just locally, there a big world out there and if i can just explore our beautiful country then so be it. I traveled enough and learned that most of what has made me a better person today was making different connections, learning about different culture and always giving my best to everyone that matters. The military made me a man, but being around people from different backgrounds made me intelligent.

I love music every kind and even though i am not religious i love to watch dance and music practices during religious ceremonies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
