ABOUT ME

I love the outdoors. You will find me hiking, biking (road or mountain), climbing, kayaking, snowboarding, caving, mountaineering, scuba diving...whatever you can think of i will try...twice. :) I am always looking for new and exciting things to try and see.

I also love trying new, local, and unique beer.

Also being from PA...I cheer for the EAGLES

I like to be spontaneous!

My favorite items:
a toss up between my mountain bike and snowboard.

quotes i like:
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
-Mark Twain

"What Lies Behind Us And Before Us Are Tiny Matters Compared To What Lies Within Us."
-Ralph Waldo Emmerson

A good friend will bail you out of jail....
A true friend will be sitting right beside you saying, "dang that was fun!"
-Unknown

If you are contacting me to stay at my house use the word "beer" as your email heading

sometimes your flush and sometimes your bust,
when your up its never as good as it seems but when your down you never think you will be up again
-Blow

PHILOSOPHY

-the irony of life is that no one gets out alive

-never let the fear of striking out keep you out of the game

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Calgary, Canada '09
-I was able to meet up with a gentlemen, Lane, and his wife who were the nicest couple. They retrieved me from the airport with hot chocolate in hand and showed me all around the city. My experience in Canada wouldn't have been the same without their help.

Charleston, SC '09
-My gf and I visited for a night. We were housed in the city and were able to go out with some locals. Turned out to be a great experience and somewhere i would love to go back to.

Savanna, GA '09
-My gf and I surfed for one night. We showed up around dinner time and were welcomed with open arms by our amazing hosts. We provided the beer and together we spent 3 hours getting acquainted and learning that we were all long lost friends. A great experience in a beautiful area.

'09-'10
while spending time working and living in Vermont i have had the opportunity to host numerous people. It has really opened my eyes to this CSing experience and I am really enjoying it. Even had CSers return more than once.

Boston, Mass '10
Went to a Red Sox game at Fenway and crashed for a night with 3 friends. I love Boston, great host, and a lot of overall fun.
