CURRENT MISSION

Living life in the present. Doing more of what I love. Leading a grounded and thrilling life!

ABOUT ME

I have been told that I am a pretty laid back, easy going guy. I like to experience new things, people and places. I also enjoy approaching life as lessons and opportunities.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't like to impose my ideas on others. Instead, I would rather be challenged in my views so that I may grow as a person. I think that we were put on this planet to fulfill some purpose and I am just looking for that purpose now. I could write a whole book on what I think, but we should really just chat about it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I traveled for three months in Europe a few years ago. Did a lot of surfing there. Now it is time to pay it back and build up some positive karma for my next travel adventure.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed for three months in Europe. New to hosting. Looking to meet new cool people and hear their story.

Interests

All things outdoors and active. I enjoy cycling, backpacking, yoga, meditation, running, hiking, surfing, swimming, rock climbing, etc. There isn't much for music I don't like and enjoy playing it when I get the chance. I enjoy good food, good wine, good beer and good company.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm not a big movie guy, I would rather read a book. Most all music played by talented people interested me. Books, well all kinds but Robert Greene, Eckhart Tolle, and Allan Watts are what I'm reading currently. I like books rooted in reality, similar to the movies I prefer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled across Europe!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an engineer by training so anything math or physics based I can definitely teach about. I would prefer to teach yoga or some other philosophical topics though. I can cook and am always down to share my knowledge there. I think you could ask me about anything and if I don't know I will find out how we can figure it out! :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A warm shower, a safe, clean, comfortable place to sleep. The only thing I ask is you respect me and my things and I will be sure to take care of your needs the best I can.
