CURRENT MISSION

Traveling Mexico. We hope to meet some new people and make new friends, we also want to get better at speaking Spanish.

ABOUT ME

Hi my name is Matt and I'm a curious person. My girlfriend Sindhya is curious too. We're curious about everything really. Not gonna lie. So many questions and so many places to go, with so little time. If you stay open minded, the world is endlessly fascinating.

My passions are travel and photography. Sindhya likes to travel too and write and doodle pretty things in her journal along the way. It helps us remember that this whole thing isn't just a dream. IT'S REALLY HAPPENING.

We're both foodies. There aren't many things we won't eat.
We love exploring new places by eating our way around.

We're seekers, who enjoy meeting new and interesting people from around the world. Maybe you like seeking too and we can share stories or ideas.

We enjoy motorbiking to waterfalls, cruisin' together, eatin' noodle soup, takin' misty boat rides down jungle rivers, adventuring and learning. Maybe we'll learn to sail the seven seas and battle pirates along the way? Anything is possible.

PHILOSOPHY

Question existence, question it all.

No one person has the answers, there's not one way to live.

Traveling is humbling, it shows you what a small part of the world you occupy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Reciprocity, cultural exchange, and generosity to strangers.
I share my couch when I can and surf around when I travel. It's fun!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have couch surfed at home in America and also in South America. I have hosted several people as well. My first couchsurfing experience was now over 10 yrs ago.

Interests

Live music, traveling the beautiful imperfect world, tea drinking, being active outdoors, soaking up sun, learning new languages, eating new foods/cooking tasty meals, cards against humanity, psychology/human behavior, culture and history, current affairs and philosophy. Beer pubs over nightclubs. Books over kindles.
