About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live a wholesome life and experience a wide variety of what the world has to offer.

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in Cleveland, Ohio. I teach English to children here. I enjoy traveling to new places and meeting with new people. I am usually a fairly easy person to get along with. I have done a little bit of traveling, and I enjoy learning about new places and cultures very much. Variety is the spice of life, I'd like to see as much as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been pulled into the couchsurfing scene through forces beyond my control. Many of my friends are couchsurfers and I hope that I can also have some nice experiences with it. I did meet some great people in Poland through couchsurfing, and I look forward to both hosting people and meeting other couchsurfers on the road.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was a couchsurfer before I knew what a couchsurfer was. I think it's a great way to travel and meet people and not get stuck paying too much money for everything. I have been to some of the couchsurfer meetings here in Haikou and also in Guangzhou. I look forward to participating more in the future.

Interests

I like meeting new people and speaking with all people. I like some hiking (nothing too extreme). I find a lot of gratification being in nature, forests, beaches, rivers, etc. I also like cities, walking around them drinking coffee and looking at stuff. I also like to party at night. Certainly not every night, but the occasional all nighter. I have no interest in television or shopping.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like books. I read daily. I watch movies occasionaly and I never watch regular television.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done a considerable amount of traveling in the states, South America, Europe, and now Asia. I've had loads of awesome experiences. I try to keep my sights set on the next ones.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am an English teacher, and would certainly be able to help others with English during my travels. I'm also a pretty good juggler.
