About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet people from all over the world, traveling is awesome but only because the people make it awesome.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel, like really really love it. I've been to China, Thailand, South America and most of Western Europe. I didn't discover how wonderful travel was until a few years ago, but now I'm hooked.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is about more then working. I believe that life is about seeing new places and meeting new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to host people, I like to stay with people and I like going to events that I learn about from this site.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met so many great new friends from this site. I've hosted quite a few times now and been hosted myself. Everyone I've met with this site has been amazing.

Interests

Meeting everyone, seeing everywhere. I have a true passion for travel, it drives me. Meeting new people and being part of the local culture. If I travel all the time I would, but I guess I'll stick to doing it in between by job for the time being.

I'm amazed by language. In the U.S. we only need one, but shame on us. In every country I've been to people speak multiple languages which is so amazing to me. I'm learning Spanish now and hopefully others after that.
