About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have as much fun as possible while helping others. I want to learn while traveling, experience other places, and make people smile along the way. I'm trying to find my way around the world. I have been working seasonal jobs for 10 yrs now to help fund my travels. From Commercial Fishing Alaska, to farming Marijuana in California.

ABOUT ME

Im very open minded and talkative. Since I was young I have had the ability to talk to anyone, anywhere, about anything. I like to make people laugh and have a good time. I work on a Commercial Salmon fishing boat in Alaska for the past 7 yrs during the summer and fall. I have the time and freedom to see the world so im taking advantage of that. Eating, talking, listening to new things everyday.
PHILOSOPHY

Have no Shame in who you are. Try and accept everyone for who they are. listen 80% and talk 20% whenever possible. Help when you can.

ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHTSIDE OF LIFE!!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I plan to stay with people and learn there ideas and customs. And share mine as well. I like to meet up with travelers in my city and show them around.. If I stay with a host I will be a neat, clean, and polite guest. Plus I will always have some jokes ready. Cheers!

Interests

I work and live for 6-8 months a year on the ocean. Fishing in the summer, and play in the snow in the winter. And watch soccer all year long. I attended World cup 2014 in Brazil after 5 months in South America. I snowboard in the winter and Fish in the summer. Recently I discovered my passion for music festivals and Electronic music shows. I have done a little stand up comedy and enjoy most all music. Most of my time is spent eating, learning random facts, movies, reading , in the sun, on the water, golf, skateboarding, photography, yoga, DANCING,and of course my Family and friends.
