About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel, meet and learn!

ABOUT ME

I've been traveling around the world my whole life, and never have lived in one location for more than 6 years. I've been using the new-found opportunities to travel to as many places as often as I can. I want to meet people of different cultures and languages and to learn everything interesting they have to say!

PHILOSOPHY

Do everything that you want to do as soon as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to open up my couch so that others may have as good an experience as me when they travel out to my current home in California.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It is the best opportunity for understanding and seeing the best that a new place has to offer. My recent best experience was when I coming into (apparently a bad part of) Tangiers at night without a place to stay or even the address of a hotel. A girl I befriended on the train took me in (possibly out of pity), fed me, and showed me the more interesting parts of the local Moroccan culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got lost with no money or language in Japan, and essentially had to sneak my way back to my home city.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to cook many Asian, Russian and European dishes. In the winter, I'd love to take someone Snowboarding. I can teach beer lovers about new and exciting California beers.

I want to learn swing dancing, and anything and everything.
