ABOUT ME

When I started couch surfing I was 23 and had just graduated from the University of Kansas. Now, after traveling, I don't know if it is possible to stop. I've been all over and back since 2005 and I'm always looking for a new adventure. Just so happens that I've finally found a program worth going to. I'm going to be taking 5 months off from the states to volunteer in Israel doing community service. What that is exactly I don't know, but I'm sure greatness will come out of it!

Other than that, I'm just a really easy going guy who has fallen in love with living and experiencing all facets of life.

PHILOSOPHY

If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got. If what you are doing is not working, do something else
