Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Just out to enjoy life, meet new people, and travel while I am young.
ABOUT ME
I'm a very easy going person, who loves to make people laugh and have a good time. I am an adrenaline junkie, and I push myself every chance I get. I currently cycle, run several mud-circuit races each year, and love to stay active. I recently moved to Charlotte, NC, and love getting used to this climate and city
PHILOSOPHY
Don't sweat the small stuff. If it won't upset you in a year, why let it bother you in the present?
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have been a member of couch surfing for quite some time now, and I just surfed for my first time over Thanksgiving 2013. I do not own a home, as I rent off of a friend, so I do not have much to offer in the way of hosting, but shoot me a request and I can see what I can work out. He is a very open person as well, so I'm sure we can work something out. I am looking forward to meeting someone for a short stay.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first couch surfing experience was excellent! I met my host at his place, we exchanged stories for a little while, and then we headed down to a local diner for a bite to eat. It was refreshing to converse with someone new. I really enjoyed the experience and the story gained from the stay.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I had a simple childhood/adolescence, but I have been improving on it since. I traveled to Spain and London in 2011, and got to experience some of the languages, cultures, and experiences that opened my eyes to how people function around this globe.
I've went skydiving twice, played competitive paintball for years, and am currently looking to get more into rock climbing and mountain biking. I have ran multiple Warrior Dash, Tough Mudder, Foam Fest, etc type mud/obstacle races all round the midwest. I hope to tackle a marathon next year, just to cross it off of my bucket list.
Teach, Learn, Share
I enjoy meeting people who are not quick to judge; people are are willing to listen as much as they talk. People who are willing to discuss things, no matter how random, just to interact with someone, and embrace the conversation. I'm expanding as a person, and really trying to open myself up to a greater understanding of what life is all about. Ditching cable, getting out to see more of the world, and trying to live every day like it is my last, has been working so far, and the sky is the limit.
