PHILOSOPHY

My lil sis and I say: 'I do what I want'A man is only as big as the dreams he dares to live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My lil sis and lil bro and I went to Atlanta in summer of 04 to climb some trees (sounds lame but you should check out TCI - Tree Climbers International). Bummed at friends, etc.
In between class I often frequent the couch by that one fish tank at school.
How about 'Boat Surfing'...My first night in Naknek Alaska wandering around the docks I met a few people my age and stayed the night on their boat.I camped in the courtyard of an elementary school facing the ocean in Taiwan. Some lady that lived nearby gave me some kind of sandwich; thanks mystery woman.

Adventure is good. From climbing onto the roofs of buildings to exploring the underground tunnel network here at the Univ of OK to backpacking in Taiwan.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies, Music, Books...love them; but nothing beats the real thing. I'd rather be doing it than reading about it. But of course that is not always possible, so I will watch and listen and read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing trees is always great...River tracing in Toroko Gorge, Taiwan was AMAZING. There are 500 ft walls in the gorge made out of rain polished marble!
