CURRENT MISSION

I am looking to see the world in all of its wondrous beauty.

ABOUT ME

I am 26 years old. I love my family, friends, and basketball. I also enjoy a number of other activities, such as laughing, running, frolicking, gardening, and enjoying the company of good people. I believe in always respecting others in all regards. I think that is enough, because if I meet you, you will undoubtedly hear plenty more about me. I'm a talker.

PHILOSOPHY

I hinted at it above. Honesty is the best policy. Respect should be afforded to all things, be it people, places, culture, interests, religion, sexuality, etc. I believe it is not my place to judge others for the things that they enjoy. I believe people concern themselves far too much with the things that other people do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to this couchsurfing thing, but I would love to try it. I love meeting new people when I travel, and of course I like to save money.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not couchsurfed before. If I am ever in a position to open up my couch to someone new, I would do it in a heartbeat. So if youre ever near Chicago, I got you.

Interests

Oh man. Basketball, football, tennis, american football, snowboarding. And just about any sport. People, places, things, food, culture, Language, sights, sounds, feelings. Life. I'm very interested in life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything. Love Die Hard. But only the first one. Love Lord of the Rings, books and movies. The books are better, as they always are. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I will read just about any book you give to me, as I will listen to just about any type of music. I will warn you, I have been described as a movie snob. I dont think I'm a movie snob, I think I just know what I like, and I do not have patience for awful movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming in a volcanic lake in Costa Rica was pretty neat. It is hard to say. I would like to think I have seen many amazing things. I have seen many people, and a good number of them are amazing people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a fair amount about organic agriculture and gardening. I am not an expert, but I have a pretty good deal of experience in it. I believe that knowledge gained without knowledge shared is a waste. I enjoy teaching any skills that I have to others, be it Language, sports, labor, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company.
