About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world and learn and grow as much as possible from the experience

ABOUT ME

Hey All,

I'm a 27 year old who is currently traveling the world with my girlfriend. We met and both lived in burlington vt for about 6 years before we decided to both quit our jobs and do some traveling. We plan to return to the states and relocate outside of Vermont in January 2013

PHILOSOPHY

At the end of the day, one's life is truly defined by the friends they have and the adventures they take

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I attempted to crash on a few couches in summer 08 while traveling, but with my computer access limited while traveling, plans usually fell through. I also attempted to do some crashing while traveling with Phish in Summer 09 but that never came to pass either.

I hosted two people while living in Burlington Vt and also met a handful more for drinks. Unfortunately none of those people left me reviews

Living in a small city in a small state I feel has limited my couchsurfing requests in general. Though the few people I have had come through while living here have been great so please get at me if your coming through Burlington!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing up just over 10,000 on Mount Rainer on the hottest day of summer in Washington in August 2008. After coming back down, I went to the Gorge and saw Tom Petty and Steve Winwood from the seventh row after scoring a prime ticket right before the show began

Teach, Learn, Share

If you are ever traveling by car and really need to get on the internet with your laptop, pull into the parking lot of a motel off the highway. While some hotels have access codes, many right off the road do not, and you can get on their wi fi for free if you park close enough to the building (I hope this is not viewed as criminal!)
