ABOUT ME
(Updated June 2020) Hey everyone, I am 33 years old, and I live my life one day at a time! Quite the nomad really!
I was born and raised in Orlando, Florida, then joined the US Army as a combat medic after graduating high school. I was stationed in Germany, Washington DC, and Hawaii. I also went to Iraq for 15 months back in 2005. Now that I am out of the Army, I am continuing to enjoy my life to the fullest and do what makes me happy!
I have had the opportunity to host some incredible people a few summers while in Alaska, and then surfed with some people in different parts of Europe through Fall 2012! I am excited to get more involved with couchsurfing.
I am a very outgoing, energetic, friendly, and humorous person. I am gay, so please be respectful of that. I make friends easily, and love to meet new people! Traveling is my favorite hobby, and after living somewhere for about 6 months, generally, I will be ready to move and try out somewhere else. If you have any questions for me, please feel free to ask! Happy surfing, and enjoy your travels!

Music, Movies, and Books
Im not a huge movie, book, or music person. Although I try to be. It just never works out the way I want it to!!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I was a combat medic in the US Army for 7 years, and I went to Iraq, that was probably the absolute worst and absolute best times of my life!
Cairo was amazing, and I almost didn't make it out of there!
I have had so many amazing moments in life, that there would be way too many to list!
Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to learn new languages as I continue my journeys in traveling the world. I hope that I have some knowledge to share with others as well.
