About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Constantly striving to expand the way that I think.

ABOUT ME

I like art and trees and nice people. And avocados.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm constantly striving to expand the way that I think, create, and view the world. I seek neutrality, not passivity. With a more open mind, I can better understand the people, ideas, and world that surrounds me. Each person has a worthwhile story to tell if we are open and unassuming enough to hear it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Roamed for a few months while I was abroad and was overwhelmed with gratitude for generosity from our hosts. Now I'm ready to give back and spread the positive Couchsurfing karma.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed with a few hosts and each has been great in their own way. I love exploring a new place with the people who live there and love it/know it best!
