CURRENT MISSION

To boldly go where no man has gone before

ABOUT ME

My name is Zach, you can call me Zach. I enjoy hanging out, preferably with cool and interesting people. I'm generally pretty laid back, quick to laugh, will talk about anything and everything. I like fun. If you also like fun we might get along pretty well

PHILOSOPHY

The mystery of life isn't a problem to solve, but a reality to experience.

It's a wonderful world. Let's go exploring!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing and being surfed (?). I've only surfed at others places right now, but I really dig it and would love to host some people who happen to be passing through St. Louis.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed with some supercool people in Europe (Gent and Perpignan) and had a blast, hosts were incredible people and I loved the experience. Great to get to know a place through the eyes of locals, and meet some awesome people along the way
