About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Create the reality I wish to be a part of

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty relaxed. I always enjoy meeting new people and going new places. I am a pretty big fan of graphic novels ( when I worked as a librarian I read almost our whole collection of them) I have kinda of turned into a big biker lately. I biked down the west coast from the Canadian border down into California and I am pretty sure that has altered the way I live in general. I will expand upon this description later.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to experience as broad a range of places and people and bizzarities as possible. Spontaneity and exuberance breed an interesting trip. reckless ambition. I have deep rooted appreciation for the natural world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed a good number of times now, attempted to host though it turned out that my house at the time was too hectic for it. When I find a home base, I'll start hosting again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed all over the states and a little outside of that. Every experience I have had has dropped me into a whole new universe of perspectives and lifestyles. I can't wait to continue my travels.

In general, I am very good at being places I didn't expect to be, and sleeping on floors of people I don't know.
