To finish what I've started

ABOUT ME

World Traveler now living in Austin, TX.

PHILOSOPHY

You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your f***ing khakis. The things you own end up owning you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to get more involved in the CS community and offering my "couch" and assistance to any other couch surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted many surfers since I began CS in November 2008. I traveled the world before internet was easily accessible and I met so many people that graciously offered their homes and hospitality. I hope that in some small way this helps give back to those people. Pay it forward

What I Can Share with Hosts

I rarely ask to be hosted, but when and if I do...I can share my knowledge of other countries, my experience of my travels, great stories, my smile, my magazines, my books and my time, so that we can explore together.
