CURRENT MISSION

Find my way and place in this diverse world...

ABOUT ME

I am a young professional looking to find an excuse and a way to travel the world and experience other cultures. Some friends couch surfed in South America and Europe and told me their stories and got me to this site. Since finding out about Couchsurfing I have met a bunch of interesting people I might have never met. My love for travel is endless and since I work I try to visit a new country once a year. Also I have expanded my love for photography the last few years so I wont ever be found too far from a camera.

PHILOSOPHY

Im a little too optimistic but I see it more as a positive than a negative. I like to tell it how it is but at the same time be friendly with everyone and treat them as I have known them my whole life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Look forward to traveling and meeting more ppl from CS.

I also attend CS events from time to time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None at the moment other than the stories I have heard from friends.

Spain after doing the Camino de Santiago(7/12). Great experience. I also did a few days in Barcelona and Madrid and attended several couch-surfing events out there and loved it!

I am definitely hooked on the CouchSurfing culture!
