CURRENT MISSION

I wish to set out on the world and learn from the very people that make it what it is, at the same time I want to know what my own country has to offer.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 32 year old kid in a big kid world, just moved to the Ann Arbor area over 6 years ago. I'm an easy going guy, obsessed with movies, love music (always listening to something), baking makes me happy, and I love staying up to date on new technologies and the next best thing.

PHILOSOPHY

Live randomly! You don't know what life is going to give you so surprise life right back.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love couchsurfing, haven't couched in two years but about to again very shortly. Staying at a hotel doesn't really give a person a chance to really get to know how a culture thrives, this community allows this however.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted my first CouchSurfers at the end of June 2009, it was amazing. Now I have friends in South Korea, can't wait to meet and learn from more people!

Traveled to Chicago for a No Doubt concert in July 2009 and met a great new friend, really got me excited to host/surf!

In March 2010 I stayed in Chicago for a Spring Break trip, first time traveling alone, it was a huge success! Planning another trip to go back soon. In fact I have been back to Chicago several times and always enjoying the CS community.

In October 2011, did a road trip to New England and Couchsurfed in Maine and New York, it was great!

In May 2012, couchsurfed in Chicago, Denver, and Estes Park over a two week period, it was amazing!
