CURRENT MISSION

Live to the fullest; Learn from people; enjoy and live the moment

ABOUT ME

I'm a ever-curious person with a drive to succeed in life that is balanced with a healthy love for friends and social events that dominate my life - I'm always looking for activities, drinks, dinners to go to and will feed friends all the time!
It's quite rare for my place to be bereft of candy, drinks or cookies!

PHILOSOPHY
Every single person has something you can learn from!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted, travelled, visited with more CS friends than I can remember :)

I'm looking forward to hosting some interesting folks seeking to learn more about the bay area.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My couch has help more people in the last three years than I can even remember - upwards of six people at one time even once!

I've loved being with friends across the states staying for weekends at a time and one of my best memories was a friend in Boston who took me as one of his own for a weekend and gave me a truly memorable experience. Another time a hostel mate from Lisbon showed me around his hometown in Budapest. Yet another was visiting a dear CS Friend (Bjorn) in his home in Germany and traveling with him in Prague and Berlin. Many more like this to continue :)
