About Me

CURRENT MISSION

get out there to meet people, see things, and enjoy life

ABOUT ME

I spend 6 months a year working as a white water raft guide to fund months of travels, explorations and relaxation. The passed 6 summers I have worked on the Green and Colorado Rivers near Moab, Utah, showing travelers the beautiful red rock canyons of the desert and hoping to pass on a respect for wild and remote locations.
During the other 6 months of the year I spend my summer earnings exploring. I claim to be continuing my education through experience and adventure...things that can't always be learned in books, nor by a television.

PHILOSOPHY

Gotta try everything...at least once!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

During my 6 months of working I encourage others to come see how a raft guide lives, and perhaps participate in the lifestyle. Even if I don't have a 'couch' I can offer a shaded piece of grass, or at least some local advice.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've spent some of my favorite times on the couches, floors, and lawns of complete strangers.
