Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
read as much as is physically possible and learn something of extreme value within the next year or so.
ABOUT ME
I could ramble on and on about my family and friends and all that boring junk or....
Moved to Colorado from Massachusets with my stepdad and mom....and then...
I got out of high school and decided against just shuttling myself straight back to school, so I took all the money that I had saved up (which wasn't all that much) and hitchhiked around Europe for 7 months. Following that I've just been going to Front Range Community College leaning toward some sort of Journalism/media related degree.
PHILOSOPHY
I try to just take it easy, you know? Really just go with the flow and try not to stress about anything. Take a hint from The Dude, cause, The Dude Abides...
Because it all seems to just work out in the end, everything always seems to just take care of itself, to one end or another, in this great big world that just doesn't seem to want to stop turning, and that's A-O-K.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Paris, Paris, Paris, great times, I guess during my recent wandering through Europe I stayed with several people I didn't know before but who had no idea what CS was (neither did I at those times)
Interests
the more I travel and look around, the longer the list grows, it's everything, politics, language, culture, philosophy, religion, truck driving, frisbee, music; I'm slowly picking up the guitar,

Music, Movies, and Books
yes yes and yes. I'm a huge movie buff, all sorts all genres. My favorites are Its a wonderful Life, When Harry Met Sally, The Big Lebowski, Manhattan, Dogma, Duck Soup... Music a huge variety from Jazz to rock to ska to but just to give a taste: Van Morisson, Pink Floyd, Clapton, Marroon 5, Simon & Garfunkel, Presidents of the United States of America, Postal Service, Ben Folds, Suburban Legends, Real Big Fish, Cat Empire, Elvis Costello, Eve 6, Rockappella, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Devotchka, Barenaked Ladies, Parliment, CCR, and the list goes on and on... As for books, Jack Kerouac is my hero. I also have been a bit addicted to Stephan Kings The Dark Tower books, plus I love J.D Salinger.
