About Me

I am an outgoing individual who is just trying to live my best life! Which means I need to travel and have as many unique experiences as possible. Having the opportunity to create new experiences surrounding travel and new individuals is one I'm lucky to occasionally have. I enjoy new experiences and meeting new people to share them with. I believe we are here to enjoy this existence as much as possible so, that's what I'm trying to do. Recently I've been working hard in the summer time so, that I can travel and do things in the fall/winter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel yet, I love to do it cheap. When I'm in the U.S. I'm often living out of my car and camping a lot. It's not because I'm homeless or poor (although I'm no where close to well off, that's for sure). It's because I enjoy it and it allows me to go further and do more with my adventures. When I'm trying to travel internationally it's a little harder. That's where Couchsurfing comes in! Traveling to me isn't about being put up in lavish accommodations and being pampered. That sounds lonely and lacks substance. It's about creating unique experiences with like individuals who share ones passions. Such as travel and adventure!

Interests

I love to climb, hike, slackline, and camp whenever possible. I love to create and work with my hands. I draw, sculpt, and build when I'm not outside to occupy time and passions. I enjoy a nice beer, great conversation, and good people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have quite varied and eclectic music tastes. Anything from classic rock that I grew up listening to on my parents radio to new unique hip hop and folk acts.
Love a good Scifi novel and almost anything Stephen King. Currently knee deep in the Dark Tower series.
I don't watch TV but, love good cinema. I'm a big fan of the works of Quentin Tarantino and Wes Anderson.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've driven from Fayetteville AR, out to the West Coast then all the way up to Anchorage, AK and back several times having many stops and adventures along the way. I love to drive.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughs and good times. I have been lucky to have had a few incredible experiences and hope to have many more. I love sharing my stories and hearing others. I wish to inspire others to be open and follow their passions and hope to in turn be inspired myself.
