CURRENT MISSION

To break the confines and misconceptions about cultures by experiencing the world.

ABOUT ME

I am an eccentric adventurer, that loves just about any situation that I am thrown into. When I am not bogged down by being a workaholic, I spend most of my time playing soccer and mountain-bike riding. Drinking is commonplace, but not a must to have a good time. At the moment I have just moved to Pittsburgh to explore the exciting field of Entertainment Technology.

PHILOSOPHY

Find something that you truly enjoy, and let yourself be driven by it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been out of the game for a little while, but I would like to bring the mentality that people had in Europe about Couch Surfing to the States.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had my first CouchSurfing experience when I traveled to Vienna. I actually wasn't a part of the project at the time, but my friend found someone that agreed to put five of us up for three nights. This blew me away that someone would open their door to that many strangers, and decided that I needed to be involved.
