CURRENT MISSION

to shrink size of the earth in my mind one place at a time!

ABOUT ME

I have come back to Cincinnati after a long absence. I grew up here (7th grade forward) but left when I went away to college. 11 years later, I am back and thankfully have accumulated different experiences to hopefully share with other like minded people.

PHILOSOPHY

To be able to do the things I enjoy by doing the things I need to do. Sadly, it cannot be no work and all play, so having a sense of balance is important, but not so much so as to become rigid or inflexible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to get to know the Cincinnati CS community and anybody curious enough to visit the Queen city. Even though I am, in a sense, from Cincy, this is almost as if I am coming back to a new city after being away for so long and I thought the CS community would be a great start to meet new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not surfed or hosted yet, but look forward to when time permits!

Classics- Godfather, Dumb and Dumber!, Fight Club, you get the point.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Thankfully, I have had a few, but climbing Wynapicchu (the mountain next to Macchupicchu) at 5 in the morning, arriving hungry, thirsty, and exhausted, and sharing a doggy bag of (basically) slop with another climber comes to mind. Then, I just sat on top for a while until the euphoria wore off.

Teach, Learn, Share

Umm, same as above.
