Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've slept on pull-out couches & air mattresses, in hostels, pulled up to strange motels in the middle of the night to crash, and of course made the earth my bed plenty of times. My experience in pulling up to a stranger-but-soon-to-be-friend's house and crashing on their couch is definitely lacking, but can be fine tuned pretty quickly.

Intereses

The outdoors, the indoors, math, sports, books, what? But really-- CURRENT runner, lover of calculus, and connoisseur of books and the environment (and sometimes books on the environment). A FUTURE engineer, world (not famous) skier, and all-around adventurer.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I've been lucky enough to travel a good portion of the world and see some pretty incredible things, but anyone can be amazing in that sort of way. I've always been pretty scrawny and weak, so naturally I try to push my body to its limits. One time, I ran a marathon. I was slow as hell and passed out at the finish, but I did it and it's one of my proudest accomplishments. Oh and I've seen Pope Francis twice and that's been pretty cool.
