I like to meet interesting people and experience new things. I consider myself a student of life. I'm kind of an old school hippy, at least in philosophy. I'm healthy, I exercise daily and I'm a vegan, but I don't care if you are or aren't. I really believe in "different strokes for different folks."
I have a positive outlook on life and prefer to avoid the negative stuff. I'm goal oriented. I like to do, achieve, create and make things happen. Life is what you make it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
