CURRENT MISSION

Sucking the marrow out of life, Oh Captain My Captain!

ABOUT ME

Hi there! This is tough to do but I will give a shot.

I love to travel. It has been a passion of mine for a long time. Over the last 8 years or so I have spent over 3 years total in Egypt, Lebanon, Israel/Palestine, Jordan, India, Nepal, Kenya, Libya and Tunisia. Just recently I have graduated from the Monterey Institute of International Studies with a Master of Public Administration. Right now I am working with the Institute co-running the Mix-Methods Evaluation, Training and Analysis Lab (META Lab).

My hobbies are Argentine Tango, playing drums/percussion, soccer and beach bonfires. I'd have to say my favorite thing to do is sitting with a group of people exchanging stories over a beer.

Send me a message if you want to stop by for a coffee or are interested in hosting me on one of my adventures!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is what you make it. So go make it already.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Getting more involved slowly but surely!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I lived with a couchsurfing host in Jordan and we hosted many different travelers over a period of six months. It was a very rewarding experience for me and have wanted to become more involved ever since. My most recent experience was living with a Libyan man in January 2012, a few months after the fall of the regime.
