About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to travel and work around the globe. The experience so far has been remarkable.

ABOUT ME

After graduating university I figured the best way to comprehend the beauty and complexity of life would be to obtain firsthand perspective in our world. I'm a traveler on a mission to work and experience, embracing the new and diverse along the way.

PHILOSOPHY

People collect many things. Some collect shoes, some collect antique coffee mugs, and some rubber stamps. I collect experiences and friendships. Each and every one of them is priceless.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am an avid attender of CS group gatherings and hangouts. I enjoy listening and learning from others. CS activities provide a great opportunity to share and grow.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was welcomed into the CouchSurfing family by the group in Yogyakarta. Since that time I have felt more welcomed and more love in my new home. I am grateful for the extension of friendship. The plan now is to pay it forward.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a penchant for the technical text and the fantastic. As for music, I dig all of it, man.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every day in a new location is a gift beyond compare. Traditional music and dances have become favorites of mine. I love museum adventures, too.

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't judge. Enjoy.

A choice is better than no choice.

It is always better to give than receive.

There is no failure. There is only a need to change perspective.
