CURRENT MISSION

To travel as much as possible and enrich as many lives as I can!

ABOUT ME

I'm a friend to everyone I meet. I love traveling and making friends, so this seems like a great way to do both! I'm honest, loyal, hard-working, adventurous, and a southern gentleman. Life should be enjoyed, so get out there!!

PHILOSOPHY

One of my favorite quotes and how I live my life:

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I cannot host because I don't have my own place... I actually surf with friends in Houston when I'm not traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed in Las Vegas, Utah, and Illinois... all for Spartan races that I've run. I've had such positive experiences and look forward to continuing to meet awesome hosts!

Intereses

I LOVE running. I ran cross country and track in high school and have not stopped since then. I ran the Honolulu Marathon in Dec 2012 and in 2013 my goal was the Spartan adventure race series. I ran one and fell in love! I ended up running 6 of them that year and then 7 in 2014! Now I work for them and race as many as possible. I also enjoy disc golf, bowling, wood working, sewing, going to the beach, and donating blood (I know that sounds odd, but I really love helping others and it's so easy to do and helps people in a way that nothing else can).

Algo increíble que he hecho

I served in the United States Marine Corps and was part of the initial invasion of Iraq that lead to the operation known as "21 days to Baghdad".

Spent one week with a good friend hiking through the mountains of Oaxaca, Mexico with nothing more than a backpack, sleeping bag, and a vague cartoon map... absolutely amazing.
