CURRENT MISSION

Ah, damn, I am not too good when it comes to describing myself. Well, the basics are always good, so I'll start with those. I was born in Mesa, Arizona but moved to Memphis when I was just over a year old. I moved to Lexington a couple of years ago and I have been here ever since. I have always wanted to get out and see the world and I am infinitely curious about other societies and their customs.

Alright, after that short intro let's go to where I am now. I just graduated with a B.S. in Animal Science from UT. I am hoping to get my Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine someday but I plan on going to grad school and getting my Master's next year. So a lot of school in my future.

I am a huge nerd with a long list of idiosyncrasies. I love video games, plain and simple. However I also enjoy reading, watching TV, hiking, and just soaking up the good moments whenever I can. Cookie cutter description, I know, but it fits.

I am pretty sure that I am on my way to killing my kidneys because I basically have an IV of Mountain Dew attached to me at all times. I need my weight in caffeine every day.

I constantly listen to music. It is always nice to have somewhat of a soundtrack accompanying your life.

I try to be the best guy I can, I do whatever I can to help people and I only feel good when others feel good. I love to socialize and get out of the house as well. Going out and meeting new people, or having conversations with friends old and new is something I always enjoy.

PHILOSOPHY

"Treat others how you want to be treated." Cliche, I know, but I believe in it 100%.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just started but I am looking forward to expounding upon this section soon!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My roommate told me about how she hosts and surfs and I thought it sounded really awesome. So of course I said yes when she asked if I was comfortable with letting people surf in our (new!) apartment. Looking forward to hosting and possibly surfing in the future.
