About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet more couchsurfers, have more adventures, see more sunrises

ABOUT ME

value education and am always interested in learning more. You can't close your ears so you might as well listen.

I'm a climber, hiker, swimmer, biker, runner, and more just ask. I like spending time outdoors doing anything. I have a stack of books waiting to be read and always enjoy listening to new music.

I think that our bodies will do anything that our mind tells it to do, we have unimaginable power within ourselves.

PHILOSOPHY

I'll try anything at least once.
A single person can make a difference, at least to the people around them.
Live Consciously.
Buy locally.
Reuse.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want new experiences. I would like to experience the life constantly happening in a the new places I travel to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Switzerland, Germany, U.S

Interests

music (hip hop, folk, bluegrass, jam, classic rock, alternative, electric, ect.). I love to ride bikes either on trails or in the city. I love camping and sleeping outside. I love to belay and rock climb. I'm interested in gardening, cooking and eating foods produced locally. I also like to spend time in parks. I like art and I like to make art, the process is sometimes the best part. I like live music and to dance.
