I love to adventure. I hope to build a life seeing many beautiful things and making incredible memories. I love to ask big questions and learn about the marvelous people I share this planet with.

I hope to meet you soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is not only an affordable form of travel, it is the most culturally and socially rich form of travel. I will take a great conversation and a couch over a 5-star hotel any day!

I hope I can begin to surf more often!

I don't watch any TV but I love country, jazz, orchestral and pop music. I love to read philosophy, positive psychology, and economics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a summer at a monastery in Norcia, Italy considering becoming a monk. I spent the summer living and working with the monks. I didn't become a monk but it was the most introspective experience of my life.
