About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world any chance I get.

ABOUT ME

Right now I am attending college to get my masters. I can host people and enjoy it, I could certainly give a tour of the town as it is very small. But lots of fun cool things to do in the area.

I am from California in the US. I am currently living in Gunnison CO. I studied environmental science in college, and loved learning about the earth and interesting views about the planet. I like traveling and try to travel whenever I get the chance. I am outgoing and open to others beliefs. I enjoy sports and beer like most people haha. I like photography, its has become a hobby for me.

PHILOSOPHY

treat others the way you would like to be treated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host surfers when I can which has been a very nice and pleasant experience. Hosting on weekends is definitely easier for me. I also surf of course when I get the opportunity to travel. I have only had good encounters with people. I also go to some cs events when I can, but have not had so much free time lately :(

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Every experience I have had, has been quite wonderful. I really enjoy this site and the way it allows travelers to share tips and stories. I look forward to being a part of CS for a long time.

Interests

I like outdoors activities like surfing, kayaking, camping, hiking and cycling. I want to ride my bike from Seattle to L.A. one day.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like books the most for entertainment. One day I would like to have a room in my house filled with books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went spelunking in Budapest Hungary. It was a really amazing time. Climbing through the caves and holes was fun and in a large cavern one of our Hungarian guides sang us song in Hungarian while we were in the dark. It was a very surreal and therapeutic experience that I will never forget. Her voice was wonderful and listening to Hungarian was really special. It was amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can also cook and so can my girlfriend, freestyle rap and show you the nice local places to go.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer a nice cozy place to stay and be comfortable. hot water, good location to the center. Good conversation and nice beer too :)

I can also recommend nice places to visit in Europe, and good thoughtful conversations.
