CURRENT MISSION

Make the world less bad

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty quiet guy who likes to live simply and differently. I finished university in 2006, worked for a few years and then in 2010 sold all of my stuff and started traveling with my then-girlfriend. For three years, I lived out of a backpack, slept on couches, worked on farms, camped in the woods, saw some amazing things and met some amazing people. I experienced a lot of generosity from people I met and now that I'm settled-down in Atlanta again, it's time for me to return the favor.

This is my neighborhood (https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zNvE52VDs2AE.kEo03fmuGVjk) these are some of my favorite parts of Atlanta (https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/1/edit?authuser=1&mid=zNvE52VDs2AE.kEFKuUxoV1aY).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

You can sleep on my couch and eat in my kitchen! If you're visiting on a weekday, I can only offer you my couch; my job keeps me pretty busy. On the weekend, I may be able to show you around some. But either way, I can recommend some good things to do while you're in town. I'm a pretty introverted guy - so I can grab a beer with you but I'll pass on the club-hopping. Please mention 'brown m&ms' in your couch request to indicate that you've made it this far down.
