CURRENT MISSION

Promoting positivity world wide, exploring this amazing planet we live on, bringing happiness to those I meet.

ABOUT ME

In the last two years I have undergone quite the metamorphosis, losing 160lbs, or about 52 Kilos. I studied Russian for 4 years and would consider myself conversational, and I am currently studying in France trying to grasp another language. I am very much an advocate for sustainable living and do my best to eat organic. I consider myself a very lucky person and also a very fun and outgoing guy. I hope you will be of the same thinking.

Edit: So since living in France in 2015, I graduated from Florida State University and after months of saving up biked from Florida to Canada this summer of 2016. I spent 3 months in Quebec working on a homestead helping run a farmers market a couple hours north of Montreal. I was supposed to start work at a hostel in the city of Montreal before health issues forced me back home to recover for a while. So I'm currently in a bit of flux, but still trying to travel as much as possible.

PHILOSOPHY

Creating happiness through balance, creating balance through change.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I backpacked for about 5 weeks during the summer of 2013 and absolutely loved it, including two couchsurfing experiences. They were both fantastic and I really don't know if their is a better way to travel. I really enjoy hostels, but to experience the generosity of individuals in this manner is really incomparable.

Centres d'intérêt

I really enjoy running and hiking and anything outdoors. Traveling is my life, so when I'm not studying Russian or French at Florida State University, I am out trying to find a good time abroad. I have become extremely interested in farming, and specifically sustainable farming. I hope to WWOOF when I have completed my time at University. I am currently studying and living in Grenoble, France. If I'm not playing a sport or exercising you can find me cooking or reading a good, informative book. I also love my mom very much. : )

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I listen to all types of music, and it's difficult to find a time of day when I'm not listening to music. I love books that provide you with information as a reward for reading, anything about nature or conserving the environment is right up my alley. Let's talk Michael Pollan. I love comedies, for a long time I wanted to act and be a comedian, so movies and television were a large part of my childhood. Being on the outside of society (unpopular as it were) allowed me to take in plenty of culture when I was young (be alone and watch movies). But as for the present, I much prefer a good book.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Good company, good conversation, good times. I love to cook and I'm truly filled with compassion for all peoples. I also have plenty of funny stories, as my childhood was filled with embarrassing moments and awkwardness that now makes for fun reflection.
