CURRENT MISSION

A trip to Australia before becoming a father!

ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm a passionate and happy optimist that loves life!! I like to play, laugh, have fun, explore, learn, and relax. I'm always working towards my next goal and striving to be the best man I can be =]
After meeting tons of awesome people who hosted me abroad I came home wanting to pay it forward and host as many awesome people as I can in return between trips - next up is Australia! If we have things in common and you want to be hosted or hang out, please send me a message =]

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be the change that I want to see in the world, spreading hope and positivity. As a strong believer in Christ I think it's my job to express my faith through love, welcome others into friendship with no strings attached, and live life without judgement towards others (everyone is welcome because no one is perfect!).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While I'm young I'd like to travel all over and see as many places as possible, meeting lots of new people and fellow travelers. When I'm being hosted I try to be as helpful and courteous as possible, doing whatever work I can to pitch in.
When I'm not travelling I love to give back and open my home up to new friends! I work a full-time job during the day, but I'm happy to offer my time when I can!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I made tons of new friends through Couchsurfing while I was traveling in Europe and had unforgettable experiences. Since 2013 I've been hosting at my home in Spokane whenever I can. Every single CS experience so far has been great!

Interests

I love playing music, playing games, going to concerts and movies, as well as outdoor activities, swimming, biking, climbing, exercising, and spending time with family and friends. I like playing and watching all sports (especially NBA), playing video games and board games, reading comics and books, riding my bike, slacklining, and rockclimbing. I used to play in a few bands and love to talk music with just about anyone - right now I'm learning Piano and Ukulele (I used to play guitar and bass).
