CURRENT MISSION I was away from couchsurfing for a while, but now I'm back and ready to host! I want to make the world a better place, but not by doing anything huge, like curing cancer. Small steps: showing people how to enjoy life, introducing geocaching, helping people with their problems, etc. ABOUT ME I live in Richmond and I would love to host couch surfers! I am an environmental science major and create maps for facebook. I am a huge hiker, kayaker, skier, traveler, backpacker, biker, geocacher, and all around explorer kind-of-guy. I love the outdoors and my hammock. I am a very down-to-earth guy who like to help people and solve problems. I do a lot of traveling when I can and volunteer at local wildlife refuges. Hiking and exploring new places is the cornerstone of my existence. I hope to someday work for an agency in the department of interior, such as the park service or US fish and wildlife service. PHILOSOPHY Do not rush life. Take things in slowly so that you may enjoy your experiences to the fullest. Treat everyone with dignity and respect.
