CURRENT MISSION

Switching gears from smashing out non stop travel, kicking it into some good education and comfort living with more in depth and planned out trips.

ABOUT ME

Pushed travel for a few years now, havent stayed in one place for greater than 5 months for over 3ish years now. Really went hard for the last two, saw close to 20 countries and have some great stories to share from all of them. Sated of my travel bug for the time being, i'm looking to build a bit of a solid career and stable workspace for the next few years with intermittent travel to more adventurous locations (i.e. the middle east, Africa, Island nations).

I enjoy rock climbing, swimming, slacklining, hiking, mountain/road biking, exploring, kitesurfing, surfing, paragliding, skydiving, good beer, good food and a good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life in the moment, right here, right now- breathe in, breathe out and APPRECIATE every moment in its unique beauty. Jump on those opportunities presented to you because you never know what adventures they might lead to. Movement is important, either physical or mental- don't ever stop. Enjoy every moment and move on if your not in the right place. Listen to your body and mind, as well as being aware of the constant fluxing signals around you. Question everything, get interested. Everyone is perfectly who they are in the moment you meet them, theres nothing they can do to change who they are drastically in the short time you meet them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Help other travelers to get deeper in the areas I live in, would love to host one day, just need a solid space to host in.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Great, have done a lot of it through South America and find it incredibly rewarding. No better way to meet people and dive right into a culture than to be around someone who knows the place.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two words: Burning Man.

Teach, Learn, Share

Trust your body and mind to lead you in the right direction. It is the best guide when it comes to being happy. If you are not enjoying where you are at in either physical space or in your life, make a change and make a move in a more enjoyable direction.

Keep your mind open to new experiences, people, and places. You wont find much joy if you physically go to a new space but you leave your mind inside your home.

Positivity in everything, life is pretty amazing if you can see it that way.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Im very clean, got my backpack dialed in. Love cooking a solid meal to show my appreciation, and consider myself a pretty solid chef. Love learning new things, and sharing what I know. Have an extensive music and movie collection that I sometimes bring with me, love sharing what I have. Have a pretty acute taste for beer, food, wine and other things, so lemme know what piques your interest and ill treat!
