CURRENT MISSION

Stay afloat and advance in life while taking time to see the world

ABOUT ME

Taking steps to further a career in healthcare. I like the traveler mentality, along with its sense of adventure and openness. I am having to slow down on my travels some as I am trying to build up my educational and financial base; can't play Peter Pan forever.
Urbane and cosmopolitan. Left-of-center political leanings. Supportive of U.S. Armed Forces.
I am a yuppie, tech-savvy Gen-X millenial, that is adept in urban and agricultural/rural settings.

PHILOSOPHY

Pura vida. Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had two rewarding and enriching couchSurfing experiences while on vacation in Australia. I still communicate with those that I met in Australia. Also had a great experience in Vienna, to include its music festival and a bike ride through the hills. Also a pleasant experience in Budapest, and grateful for the help with the taxis and trains. Super great hosts in Tampa that housed me and showed me around.
