About Me

CURRENT MISSION

PORTA-COUCH MISSION! To travel all State Parks in TEXAS! I own an 88 Land Cruiser that is equipped with Everything! Shower, living room (with 50" projector), solar panels (Goal Zero Generator), you name it. I actually have it, TO SHARE WITH THE WORLD!

ABOUT ME

Well, Well, Welllllll (emphasized)! Im a hardcore camper. Meaning I can live off the land (mountain man). But I do like my PS3 on a big screen and the occasional movie at night. Im an Eagle Scout so you could say, I can tie knots and start fires. Never leave home without my merit badge. Seriously, its in my truck. Hangs over my air compressor in the back. Im a people person, havent met a person that hasn't liked me. Well, except all my ex girlfriends BUT that's expected right!? I have some deal with giving and sharing. When I was younger I took a lot (from the cookie jar) and the cookie jar isn't around anymore. Firmly believe that balance is the key and what goes around will eventually come back around. I do the next right thing (since age 26 and a half-(12)) and God has blessed me completely. If He didn't, I would'nt have what I have today, not talking material at all. Im a genuine person and I make stuff happen. Im Mission Impossible 2 and Garbage Pail Kids ALLLLL fruit ROLLED up into one. Im very artistic and active and believe that eating healthy is key to long lived lives. I know that helping other people makes me happy. I also except the fact that some people will never understand the level of mind set some have. Ive been way through slash done that to understand that. I think that's about it. Don't get me wrong, I love a greezy cheese burger here and there. Just not on a regular. Kay

PHILOSOPHY

MOTTO - What goes around comes around so don't go around
Things can ALWAYS be worse, no matter what you say or think
Life happens for a reason so don't try to change it too much

I'VE ADDED A MOTTO SECTION TO MY PROFILE. COMING UP, PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY AND SO ON... STAY TUNED.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a huge enclosed 15 x 15 pop up tent with a blowup couch that folds out into a bed. Included is a 50" projector for movies that I have available. Only the BEST ones.

Besides the pop up, I have a tent that sleeps 2 to 3 comfortably.

Interests

Im interested in artistic people. Similar minds think a like. Athletic / active people are a must. Rest is for the folks in their 90's. I love a great intelligent conversation minus too much politics. Sports are awesome, especially football. Elite of the elite. How could you not like the best of the best. It's not easy and hard work pays off. Work hard PLAY HARD! oh yeah interest, water, kayaking, hiking, biking, repelling, rock climbing (viscera), up to get down, down to get up, snowboarding is a must and im a vet, skateboarding, wakeboarding, fishing, hunting, working on my truck, going to the store for my granny, finding a whole in a little kiddy pool for my mom's friends 1 year old son and yes I know this is a run on sentence. There's more but im tired now.

Music, Movies, and Books

WHY I LIVE MY LIFE - I live life to the fullest. We wont be here forever so make your MARK! Life is way too short to argue and fight so pick up some communication skills (believe me they pay off 100). I live my life, seriously, to help other people. When it all comes down to it, I truly think about others before I think about myself. You may think im just saying that but its something else when others tell you that. Beyond this here.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

TEACH LEARN SHARE - Communication is key. Talk Talk and Talk. Those commas don't matter. Tap into outside resources as much as you can. Every therapist needs a therapist and that says a lot. The more you vent, the more you breath, that's what the vent is for. Do NOT become a walking time bomb, eventually you will blow. Now or later is not just close to an old school candy. Look at life this way. You wear armor/everyday, given to you from the day before. Throughout that day it was knocked off, so how are you putting it back on? Its crucial you know about repition and consistancy in making your wrongs right.

Teach, Learn, Share

PEOPLE I ENJOY - Active people. Individuals with drive and passion. GO for IT attitudes. Live life like the end is near. One chance is all you have, takers in that aspect. Artistic people I am geared toward. I think mainly because there's a similar plain there. Over all, I really enjoy people that do right in life. That know that clear line from right and wrong. People that make things so simple and complication does exist but it rare. I love meeting people at State Park and National Park because everything is thrown out the window. Meaning, friendly is up front.
