About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keepin it real.

ABOUT ME

Laid back guy who goes on a big vacation once a year. I am currently not too interested in the outdoors or wildlife, just people and culture. So I see alot of cities! I love to see sights, dance, and meet interesting people. I adjust pretty well to whatever environment, so Im down for whatever!

PHILOSOPHY

Haha, this is probably not a good question for someone with an advanced degree in Philosophy...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is a dope community. I am a considerate guest who I hope has alot to offer. In Seattle when space allows I want help out for some travelers who are sick of hostels and who want to meet cool people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Ive done a bunch, but not too much through this website. Here are some non-affiliated stuff:

- 2.5 Months in Tokyo (friend in the navy)
- Many weeks in NYC (my brothers place)
- 1 month in Seattle (at my friend Christy and her boyfriends)
- 2 weeks in London (housesitting for acrobalance partner)
- 2 months in London (squatting with jugglers)
- 3 weeks in Cape Town (living with bboys)
- 2 weeks in Tallinn (staying with a friend from Africa)
- 2 weeks in Bogota (staying with friend and her husband)

I couch surfed across Russia and it was mad fun. Couch surfed in Rio Too.

Interests

Reading, writing, juggling, breakdancing, other people and culture.

  • wildlife
  • culture
  • writing
  • dancing
  • environment
  • reading
  • juggling
  • outdoor activities

Music, Movies, and Books

Read alot of literature, science, and philosophy.

I love anything that makes me want to dance! This usually means that I listen to hip hop and electronic music. I also like 80's stuff but thats a secret.

Watch drama and action mostly.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Still alive.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give juggling and breakdancing lessons to those who are interested. Philosophy teaching is the day job, and for the most part Im not too good at it, so probably stick to the juggling/dancing.
