About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See it. Do it.

ABOUT ME

I'm a friendly, chill person who is fortunate enough to be in the position to take my work with me wherever I go as long as there is an internet connection. I am hoping to see a big portion of the world slowly over the next few years. I like to travel at a pace that allows me to get a feel for local culture, get used to an area, the food and maybe pick up a few words of the local language. I can currently speak (or at least enough to be understood) spanish and italian, but wouldn't mind adding a few more languages to the mix.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what makes you happy. Treat other people how you'd like to be treated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm still a newb.

Interests

Food always comes to mind here, making it, growing it, and especially eating it. As far as traveling goes, doing whatever is around is usually good. I was surfing in Ecuador, mostly just been eating in France, but who's counting.
