About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Haven't been on this site for years, and getting back into it. Haven't been able to travel for awhile due to a million surgeries, but got the bill from the docs to travel again. My mission as always is to meet new people and either show them around my area or have them show me around there's I'm just having a good time meeting interesting and cool new people.

ABOUT ME

PHILOSOPHY

If your not living your dying.
Give back as much as I take.
If someone is willing to put you up be as graceous as possible, and as neat as you can be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By both housing and being housed by people on the site. It is a brilliant idea. Not only do you lose the sterile environment you get with hotels, but you get to meet great people that you would have most likely never crossed paths with.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

99% have been amazing and memorable, only a few disrespectful guests (not ones I have met here though, bands).

Interests

Meeting as many interesting people as I can, learning from them and keeping in contact as much as possible. Hmm this is more an in person thing I hate filling these out :-) i do wanna plan a sailing trip from key West to Australia, so if anyone is interested let me know.

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC: Um I'm very odd in this one I like really old punk rock, opera and classical. Those are my favourites... but I love 80s too. Will listen to anything though as long as it's catchy.

MOVIES: my two favourites are fried green tomatoes ( no I didnt miss type) and return of the living dead.

BOOKS: I LIKE alot of philosophy and history mainly.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
