CURRENT MISSION

See as much of the world as possible before I am too old and have too many responsibilites

ABOUT ME

Really big into traveling and exploring. I work in real estate in Oregon.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather a skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, "WOW, what a ride!" Hunter S. Thompson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Been On the site about 8 years. I've surfed on other peoples couches 3 or 4 times and host in Vancouver WA

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love the whole idea of couch surfing. The coolest part is being able to share stories and live through other travelers experiences even if you can't travel yourself and just host.

Interests

Well lets see. I'm a Private Pilot. I like to SCUBA dive (advanced open water certificate with about 30 dives). Being from Oregon I spend a lot of time in the outdoors fishing and hunting and camping. I graduated from Oregon State in Finance (go Beavs) and my favorite teams are the 49ers and Trailblazers
