CURRENT MISSION

to gain perspective

ABOUT ME

Me? I like simple things. Music, good company, temperate climates, the forest, camping, genuine people! I just graduated from a State University in Washington very near to the Canadian border, with a degree in Environmental Policy/Urban Planning. I am going to be the guy that tells you what the environmental requirements are for constructing new buildings. I like to travel. I lived at home for a year to save up for this adventure to South America, a land I have never visited before. I am 2 months in and loving it. Argentina is beautiful, and the people have been most gracious. I am going to work on an organic farm with my lady for 3 weeks in November, something I am excited about. That´s really all that I think to be relative at the moment. I just wanna have good fun and good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

do unto others as you would have others do unto you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

as of yet, none. Currently have been camping a lot, but I think that in the city it will become less practical. At that time, I will try to become more active in the couchsurfing scene. I have heard good things!

Interests

enlightening conversation, snowboarding, listening to music, reading to gain knowledge and to escape from the world (good fiction), playing tennis, riding my bicycle, being outdoors, working on meaningful projects, helping out where I can.
