About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to just put myself out there, meet new people and have as many experiences as possible. I want to be an asset to the world, to brighten people's lives and leave things better than they were before I arrived =)

ABOUT ME
I'm a pretty friendly guy; like to meet and get to know new people from different backgrounds, help in the community. I love extraordinary experiences; when i tell people about the things that happen, I often get responses like "You are always doing something amazing" or "You're the only person that would ever happen to"... haha, and i love that. I am a firm believer in the philosophy "you create your own experience". I dont know exactly where i'll end up... but the journey is all i really care about...

PHILOSOPHY

If not now, when?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, the morning i signed up for couchsurfing I was living in the Florida Keys; went kayaking, decided to jump off and swim... got stung by a jellyfish, then 2 minutes later saw 3 dolphins swimming toward me... I stayed and let them swim through, passing 10 feet next to me. I swam after them until one turned and charged me... haha, i stopped and he went under, and i freaked out a little -cuz didnt want to get bitten, but he turned and left. THEN we realized the kayak had floated out to sea, so i had to swim hard as i could for nearly a mile, and collapsed on the side of the kayak. took a nap in the mangroves and then collected trash on the way in. Beautiful mornin! =))
