Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To seek and to find, and to help others along the way.
ABOUT ME
I was born in Lancaster, PA, but I've lived in Maryland my entire life. I enjoy finding myself in a strange and new place.
PHILOSOPHY
Find the voice within and follow it. Only it will be your guide.
To quote someone else: "Know thyself." and "To thine own self be true."
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I provide housing and guidance for anyone passing through my area.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have only surfed three times: once in St. Louis, MO, with a lovely girl named Katie, once in Omaha, NE, with two wonderful individuals named Jim and Miranda, and once in Houston, TX, with a gentleman named Isaias.
Interests
I am a writer at heart. That being the case, I feel a bit "heavy" when I stay in one place for too long. This explains my appetite for travel and my craving for the new and unusual. I am fascinated by the religions of the world, all of them. The myriad ways that human beings usher themselves into union with the divine will always call to me.
I love music. I love to travel, to read, and to write.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The sunset over the Grand Canyon, a migrating heard of Buffalo in Wyoming, the first snow of my last winter at St. Mary's College of Maryland was very powerful.
I witnessed some kind of exorcism in a small stone hut in Gramphoo (population 10) in Northern India.
