ABOUT ME

I'm at the hospital from about 7am - 7pm.
However, that hasn't stopped me from being a weekend warrior.
I like to travel of course and have a good time whenever I can. When I do travel, my goal is to see the sights and relax. But I also like to see and experience as much as possible in as many places that I can. This usually lends to me touring four or more countries in one trip.

PHILOSOPHY

The purpose of life is a life of purpose.
and unfortunately a bit of a motto of mine is "spend the money you don't have"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host nearly anyone who asks, unless the timing is just not right. I will definitely reply quickly. I do this because I know how frustrating it is to be uncertain of the next place you'll be able to rest your head.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed through about 15 countries on a backpacking trip through Europe. I also couchsurfed in South America - Argentina, Chile. I used it less in my most recent trip through Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.
