CURRENT MISSION

I hope to give to others what has been given so graciously given to me. A couch to crash on, roof over my head, some food, and good company... This world needs to be smaller. We are all human before any nationality, color, religion, or whatever.

ABOUT ME

me... hm... that would take a long while....

Here's the basics: I'm from Southern California. Did the SoCal thing; water sports, beach, IN-N-OUT, etc. Then went off to school on the East coast in Washington D.C. Sicily for 3 years, and after here, I'm on my way to Japan!

My travel experience is all about the people where I travel. Basically, I really don't give a damn about seeing another cathedral for the rest of my life. Here in Sicily my life is swallowed up with my friends. I attempt to live the Sicilian lifestyle with my friends; go out when they do, eat what they do and when they do, and most importantly, attempt to see the world as they do... etc.

PHILOSOPHY

Two words to describe my view about life: Adventure and have fun living in the moment with good perspective of the future! I think that this world is a small place. We need to learn about each other, cultures, languages, philosophies, etc. Being open minded, trying to see the world from another's eyes, is probably my main objective and philosophy in life... this would be the foundation and I could go on and on...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Enjoy life. Meet people. Experience life from there eyes, there thoughts, and there emotions as much as I can.

Rossella and I hope to provide a home way from home. I've traveled quite a bit and many doors were randomly opened to me when I met people on trains, planes, boats, etc. I hope to return the favor.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I backpacked Europe during a summer years ago and I met many people that invited me to stay at there home. I hope to return the favor. Continue meeting amazing people. I think us travelers all have something in common...adventure and experimentation.

Interests

Living the Sicilian life. Cheers to my great friends that I've been lucky to make while living here ...also, Kite surfing, learn to cook Italian food, ride my motorcycle, and travel all of Eastern Europe.

Music, Movies, and Books

A perfect evening is often a movie on the plasma, pizza, and a beer! I love watching movies.

Books: Right now I'm reading through a lot of John Grisham's novels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived with Mastiguenga natives that hunt bore and monkey with bow and arrow. (I still have a set that they gave me).

Back packed South America...
The blue hole
