CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to enjoy as much of this beautiful world as possible in the time that I have here..."Vision without implementation is hallucination"

ABOUT ME

I currently live in St Louis, MO and have a fold out bed available in my apartment. I want to see as much of the world as possible. My goal while I'm on this planet is to lead a happy and peaceful existence. Along the way I want to make life-long friends, find a soul mate, travel, enjoy good music, positively change the world and have fun in the process.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been an avid traveler throughout my life and people have offered me a bed or their couch many times. Sometimes others need a cheap/free place to stay and I might be able to help.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a year driving the country, visiting every state except Hawaii and Alaska. Took mostly back roads, eating local foods and drinking local beers. Hiked most of the national parks in the US.
