ABOUT ME

!!!IMPORTANT!!! Do not message me if you are moving to Portland, I don't want you in my house and I will avoid you if you move here.!!!IMPORTANT!!!

I am a native Oregonian. I drink a shitload (I'm drunk right now), sometimes to the point of becoming offensive but I don't mean it.I wake up early, even on weekends and my close friends hate me for it (I promise I won't bother you though). I understand British sarcasm. I don't care about your religious or political views, not from an open minded "everyone should believe what they want" point of view but from a closed minded "no really, I don't give a shit" point of view. I am not an artist, vegan or yoga dancer and I don't own a bike (actually I just bought a second car). I don't grasp the concept of what "down to earth" means. I shave, wash and use toilet paper routinely. To White people with dread locks; whatever the question, the answer is no. I am not opposed to getting a tattoo but I doubt I ever will. I think theft is worse than murder. Actually it goes 1)Rape 2)Theft 3)Murder (for when I write the 10 Commandments). I've never ended a phone call by saying 'PEACE'.

I know a tiny bit of Spanish and French, not enough to hold a conversation but enough for general communication.

Other than that I'm a pretty decent chap.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is improvisation

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a very central city location, people are welcome just give me at least a few days notice and don't steal. I am however out of town a lot.
Please Note: If what you've decided to do is pack up your collection of slightly humerus T-shirts and tight jeans, strap your European style bag over your shoulder and bicycle into a new life here in Portland; I am not the guy who is going to host you while you scout out looking for jobs. There are more than enough hipsters here who will accommodate you.visited 12 states (5.33%)Create your own visited map of The World

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In April 2004 when I was 19, I was traveling solo through Ireland and I stopped for a bus layover in Limerick. I only had three hours to spend but it turned into three days. I walked into The Black Swan and someone offered me a couch, I took it. Then someone else called his brother in London, he picked me up at the airport gave me a couch and showed me His city. That is what started me on this path and now I can say that I am a fully credentialed Couch Surfer

Music, Movies, and Books

I can never answer this correctly but the original 'Clash of the Titans' is damn near perfect cinema as well as 'The Godfather'. And what male who was Seventeen at one time doesn't consider 'The Catcher in the Rye' to be a part of their life? Music, meh.. take it or leave it really

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you how to Kayak or Raft. You can show me anything you want (as long as it's not listening to you play guitar, it's just not my thing. And for the love of god no poetry)I really would like to be a better cook, especially of Asian or Middle Eastern cuisine. If I surf with you I want to know as much about the local culture, sights, customs and food as we have time for.
