CURRENT MISSION

Live fearlessly, love selflessly, do everything there is to do and help others in the process.

ABOUT ME

Depending on the day, I swing between hopeless romantic and crazy existential life-as-art war general. I will make you laugh, or die trying...and by die I mean not give up until I've gotten enough withering looks to develop a new complex. I don't know what I was put on this Earth to do, but I do know that there's only one way to find out. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME.

PHILOSOPHY

"Buy the ticket, take the ride" - Hunter S. Thompson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I'm in full nomad mode. I want to meet people, share experiences, sleep on couches, and then someday, hopefully soon, host people and pay it all back.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have definitely slept on more than a fair share of couches, but not through this site (yet).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I come from humble beginnings so I feel like everything i've seen and done since I left home has been amazing. Certainly every time I've left the country has been a rollercoaster of excitement and awesome memories.

I guess my most amazing accomplishment is making it this far!

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I'm a freelance artist, studied political science, and have been a place or two. I know a shitload about dinosaurs, if anyone's dying to know about those.
