CURRENT MISSION

Find great stories!

ABOUT ME

There is so much in this world to see and experience. I'm trying to absorb all that the world has to offer. I love meeting new people even if a language barrier exists between us. Actually, if given the choice, rather than spending the day sight seeing, I would prefer to sit with a local person and share some conversation about our different cultures over some local food.

I'm in Europe right now.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to experience more in life and I find that the best way to experience life is to live it. I love spending time with foreigners.

All I really want is to live a life less ordinary.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a few people at my house in Santa Fe many years ago. While traveling I used couch surfing to find lots of free places to stay and more than that, I used CS to meet locals to show me around and share culture over stories and snacks.
