CURRENT MISSION

Live for experience, adventure, friendship, family, and respect

ABOUT ME

I am ambitious person that never settles. I strive for constant adventure, new experiences, and a dedication to whatever I throw myself into. I love talking to, learning from, and helping people. For these reasons I am working towards a career in health care, with hopes of receiving my doctorate.

My passion is held in traveling. Even if it’s a snowboarding trip to the mountains or a kayaking trip to the great lakes, I find my happiness in being outdoors and enjoying the company of others. I am always ready for new adventures.

I am easy to get along with and I love people.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that every person you come in contact with, every new experience, and every obstacle that life throws at you has the potential to make you learn and grow. Everyone has a story to be told and an experience to share.

I believe that the most important trait people must possess is Respect. For me, ill respect for another human being without cause is the greatest crime possible.

Trust and sincerity with other people is of the utmost importance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Although I am a new surfer, I am excited about the idea of inviting fellow travelers into my home and sharing experiences. After searching profiles for places to stay I cant wait to start meeting the people that so generously open their homes to strangers.

I have always thought and believed that helping travelers and sharing local experiences is one of the most fun and exciting things for the traveler and host alike.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Somehow I managed to get through nursing school without having to help a patient with a bedpan. The girls in my class would blame it on me being a male nurse…I wonder if that excuse will work for the rest of my career….

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to swim, for I spent 3 years as a college swimmer in the US. I can teach you how to snowboard, relax, fish, water ski, wake board, kayak, and enjoy company.

I unfortunately can NOT teach you how to cook. That is my curse.

I want to learn everything you have to teach me
