I dream of becoming an accomplished author, having my own pet griffin, and experiencing the world. I've so far experienced a small portion of the world and sold a few stories, but have not found a griffin. I do have a cat, though! Which is almost as good.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make traveling the world an easier task, meet new people, and experience new places from the inside, not as a tourist. Couch surfing and work away have helped me travel to many countries, and I want to pass the love forward and help other do the same.

Interests

I like stories, whether they come in the form of books, manga, comics, cartoons, anime, movies or T.V series. I'm, also passionate about being the best me possible, and train to make that happen.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't really have a favorite music, I just listen to what will put me into the mood I want to be in. Classical, violin and Jazz for learning, rock, punk and altern-rock for chilling, dance music with a beat for working out...Etc

My favorite movies are probably Crows Zero 1 and 2, some B-grade Japanese action that pumps you up and gets you ready to take on the world.

I've enjoyed all of Peter V. Brett's books, am a burgeoning fan of Joe Hill, currently enamored with Patrick rothes and enjoyed the manga series Nanna.
Oh and the author Matencera Wolf, he's awesome ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done a lot. I've swum naked in the snow, breathed fire, published multiple short stories, traveled from Australia to Europe and lived an entire new...but the most amazing thing that I have done would have to be meeting my wife by a twist of fate after breaking my back and entering into a university study as the guinea pig.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English, would love to learn more about what makes people passionate, and can share what I have learned from my own life experiences....do not eat the yellow snow.
