ABOUT ME
Experiencing new things is my favorite thing to do. I'm all about doing things just to learn. I'm not sure what direction my life is going but I'm not going to accept anything I do as being unproductive. I love exploration, whether it be hiking through nature unspoiled by human touch, reaching summits on mountains, walking along beautiful ocean coasts or whether it be urban exploration seeing colonial architecture, urban decay of a past industrial era, or admiring the architectural feats of new growing cities.
When traveling love getting to know people to see the different life experiences and views on life we all have. Learning about new cultures and learning new languages is awesome.
PHILOSOPHY
Live and let live. Vive y deja vivir. I carry it around on my arm to never forget.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I hate doing "tourist" things. When I travel I want to get to know a city and its culture, the things only people who live in a place know to find. I'm on the search for people like myself and I find that the couch surfing community is generally made of like minded people who just want to get to know others to learn most about the world and humanity.
Interests
I just love exploring new cities and meeting new people! I am all about learning about different cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Living in rural Mozambique through Peace Corps. Everything I have ever know has been completely broken down and I've been forced to live a completely new life and think in completely new ways. It is the scariest, most challenging, exciting, horrible, yet wonderful experience of my life.
