About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To come up with a better mission!

ABOUT ME

I'm a nomad at the moment. Traveling the world with my wife Jessica.

PHILOSOPHY

Have fun and enjoy your time here. Respect other's right to do the same. Do as much as you can and regret nothing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been hosting as many people as possible and telling my friends about the project.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Some of my favorite memories have been waking up in strange places with random friends. Something about the disorientation of waking up in an unfamiliar room excites me. I love that brief moment of confusion then the relief you feel when you realize that you're somewhere awesome.

Interests

I love backpacking and sailing. And of course, big parties in the middle of the desert :)
