CURRENT MISSION

Travelling Europe & South America for 3 months!

ABOUT ME

I'm a near-San Francisco native, quasi-vegetarian politically-liberal cyclist and web designer/developer with a degree in architecture who is up for most anything assuming coffee and an adventure are involved.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to waste it worrying about the effects of every action. Live for the day and any decision made with proper reason will get you to the end of the path all the same. "Your time matters and if you spend it wisely, the world will respond appropriately." -Anthony Volodkin

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
