Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I would like to visit 100 countries before I die
ABOUT ME
I love to travel first and foremost. Beyond that, I love sports, spending time with my friends and trying new things. I am someone who appreciates how beautiful life can be and want to take advantage while I can.
I am traveling around the world for roughly a year and really enjoy the opportunity to get to know people all over the world through Couchsurfing.
PHILOSOPHY
There is so much out there to see and a limited time on this earth so make the most out of every moment.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I believe in the mission of this project to connect travelers from around the world. I have surfed in all the countries I have visited on my trip and find it a great way to forge stronger local connections wherever I am.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have had so many great surfing opportunities in the past few months. All of my hosts have been so generous and have taught me a great deal about their home countries and life in general. I find surfing to be like visiting an old friend, as all my hosts have been so kind and friendly.
