About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make money to travel. Then go to school, make more money and travel again.

ABOUT ME

I currently go to school full-time and work at a restaurant. I snowboard during the winter and am currently learning to surf for the summer. I want to meet as many cool people and learn about them as they learn about me. I want more friends from all over the world! i know i'm not always available (as you can see from how many people i've met) but shoot me a message and hopefully we can meet! I am extremely busy with studying so I don't really have much time to show you around so if you are capable of exploring by yourselves, cool!

PHILOSOPHY

We have to work hard to get the things we want. When we get it, do whatever it takes to enjoy it to the maximum.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I currently attend school and work so I am not able to host as much as i'd like to but I do my best. If you are going to request a couch from me, include something about me so I know that you have read my page and not just sending requests randomly.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have helped my friend Jaden host people and it's so much fun! Taking them to a baseball game and the gaslamp district is the way to go. Summer of 2011, I traveled to Europe and met 1 CS host. Unfortunately, one other completely flaked but the one that I did meet, was super. He showed me around and helped me out when I had no where to go. Now, he's coming to visit me in the winter!

Interests

TV, tennis, snowboarding, surfing (kinda), watching baseball, eating, consuming adult beverages, hanging out,... pretty much anything.io

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - any. Books - suspense. Movies - anything but scifi and horror.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I know this is going to sound not-so-amazing since everybody on here is a traveller but for me, the most amazing thing i've done is buy a ticket to Marrakech. I am geographically illiterate so I had no idea where it was but since my friend recommended it, I went. Definitely not what I thought it was. I was so completely out of my comfort zone but stuck through it. I actually ended up going back for a second round!

Teach, Learn, Share

people from different cultures and backgrounds. They must have an open mind and be willing to accept that we don't all believe in the same things but can still get along.
