Hi, I'm Matthew! I've been in flux for about two years now and I've decided it's time to go live life. I am a Methodist Christian born in Tennessee. I spent some time in Colorado and now most recently in Texas. I've only left the country twice, but one of those times was for a European trip. I speak some Espanol and like to have fun! I want experiences that will lead me to finding definite purpose. My favorite author is Napoleon Hill. My favorite color is red. I have one dog all to myself, and I live with my father and sister who each have their own dogs too. I love talking with and getting to know people. I'm friendly and seek out other friendly people. I'm pretty American, but I want to know other cultures. I also think I'm pretty cool. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm taking a break from college and have been working to save up money for the last year. I've accomplished a lot and have a little money saved up, but I want to use it for experiencing life rather than just sitting on it. I want to meet people from all over and see what other lifestyles I can find. Connections mean the world and we all need more positive relationships. More than that I'd personally like some new friends.
